The youngest of the two Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Rising Pune Super Giants (RPSG) launched their jersey for the upcoming season of the league in Mumbai on Thursday. Indian limited overs and Pune skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Indian middle order batsman Ajinkya Rahane were both present at the event.
At the launch MS Dhoni said, “A lot of areas have been covered, so from RPS side we would like to welcome Gulf Oil Lubricants India Limited, we are proud of being part of the Hinduja family. They have been supporting us for a long time and it’s not only us they have been part of sports when it comes to motorsports,”
The skipper also said, “Now they are also a part of one of the best football teams Manchester United, so thanks for choosing us. I know after CSK, they have lot of options but thanks for showing the confidence and in turn it’s our responsibility to reflect the kind of confidence you have shown in our team,”
Dhoni further added, “Let’s move on ahead and make India proud and at the same time do well for our franchise,”
Rahane had similar views to that of the skipper and said he was happy that oil company Gulf was their team sponsor. “I am sure we will do well in this season and make the whole country proud,” he said.
Gulf Oil Lubricants India Limited, a Hinduja group company, is the principal sponsor of the Rising Pune Super Giants.
