The Indian brand will soon be seen on the Virat Brigade's blue jersey. Team India can take on a new sponsor during the series against South Africa in September. Chinese mobile manufacturer OPPO acquired its rights to remain a title sponsor on Team India's jersey for five years from 2017, but OPPO has now granted its rights to Bengaluru's educational technology and online learning firm Byjus.

OPPO bought these rights for Rs 1079 crore. The deal was proving to be very expensive for OPPO. As a result, OPPO paved the way for Baiju. "On behalf of the BCCI, we would like to thank OPPO for its partnership with Indian cricket. I congratulate Byjus for becoming the new sponsor of Team India."
