After getting Dream 11 as the title sponsor of IPL 2020, there is another good news from the officials that an Ed-tech company from India will be the official sponsor of this year’s IPL. The company is Unacademy which is a very reputed and renowned company nowadays.

Future Group has been financially hit by the Coronavirus pandemic so they have pulled out of IPL. So now, Unacademy has signed for three years as IPL central sponsor and will give a huge range of Rs 120-130 crores for the period of sponsorship.

The official announcement in this regard will be made soon.  “The deal with Unacademy is completed for 3 years. We will make the official announcement soon”, confirmed the BCCI.
