Rhiti Sports, the company that manages India’s limited overs captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, has formed a partnership with international sports goods brand, Spartan. The announcement was made by Rhiti Sports Chairman and MD Arun Pandey. “Rhiti Sports and Dhoni have joined hands for their ventures with Spartan. The parties are excited with their long-term discussions that has led to the development and now will aggressively work with each other to gain new heights of excellence and profits,” the statement added. A few days back there were reports that Dhoni was duped by Spartan Sports of over £2 million. A three-year bat and sponsorship deal worth £1.3 million went sour with Australia-based Sports company. Kunal Sharma-owned Spartan had paid only four instalments since the deal struck in December 2013, the latest payment being made in March 2016.
Besides, India’s former Test captain, Spartan has former Australian captain Michael Clarke, West Indies batsman Chris Gayle, England cricketer Eoin Morgan, former Australian pacer Mitchell Johnson and former cricket great Sir Viv Richards as its ambassadors.
