Harmanpreet first woman cricketer to bag CEAT bat deal

TIL Desk Sports/ Harmanpreet Kaur, who guided India to the final of the ICC World Cup 2017, on Monday became the first woman cricketer from the country to sign a bat endorsement deal with CEAT.

Harmanpreet, who signed a two-year deal with CEAT, joins the likes of Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane. She will now be seen playing with a bat prominently displaying CEAT insignia in all formats of the game.

“I am delighted to be associated with CEAT that is already represented by icons of Indian cricket. Taking the momentum of 2017 forward I look forward to putting in consistent performances for the team this year,” Harmanpreet said in a release.

The 28-year-old Indian women’s cricket team vice-captain has been a consistent performer across multiple formats of the game. In the 2017 World Cup semi-final against Australia, she scored a career-best 171, which is the highest individual score by an Indian in World Cup history.
