Sponsorships and Endorsements
According to a 2018 report by a leading Indian media publication, Pandya was signed up by IMG-Reliance’s talent management division and was expected to earn INR 4-5 million per deal signed with brands ever since. Both Krunal and Hardik were signed up by HalaPlay, a fantasy gaming platform in India, last year as brand ambassadors. His association with the Mumbai Indians also makes him the indirect sponsor of global brands like Samsung, Colors, Marriot Bonvoy, and many others. It is expected that Krunal earns a minimum of 7-figures yearly through these endorsements.
The Deepak Hooda Controversy
India’s domestic season of 2021 was rocked with controversy before it even began as Baroda all-rounder Deepak Hooda wrote a scathing letter addressed to the Baroda Cricket Association accusing captain Krunal Pandya of using ‘abusive language’ and ‘threats to end his career’. A ‘depressed,’ ‘demoralized,’ and ‘under pressure’ Hooda pulled out of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy a day before the start of the tournament, reported Sportstar. Hooda, in his letter, accused Pandya of abusing him in front of the Baroda teammates during their practice session. However, Pandya continued to lead the Baroda side into the tournament and went on to make his ODI debut following his stellar performances.
