Rohit Sharma Appointed Brand Ambassador for 2026 ICC T20 World Cup

Rohit Sharma has been appointed as the brand ambassador for the 2026 T20 World Cup. ICC Chairman Jay Shah confirmed this announcement, stating that Rohit will be the official brand ambassador for the upcoming World Cup. The tournament will take place from February 7 to March 8, 2026, with 20 teams participating from around the world.

As the brand ambassador, Rohit Sharma will be responsible for promoting the T20 World Cup across various stadiums and locations. A common question that arises is whether Rohit Sharma will receive a salary for this role. Generally, the salary for players appointed as brand ambassadors for the T20 World Cup is not publicly disclosed. The compensation is determined based on the player's brand value and their market rate for endorsing a company or event. Such details are typically part of a confidential contract between the ICC and the player.

For Rohit Sharma, media reports suggest that he charges between 3.5 to 7 crore rupees for endorsement deals. However, this amount does not necessarily reflect the sum he will receive for being appointed as the brand ambassador for the T20 World Cup.
