Dhoni to use coloured bat in IPL 10?

Rising Pune Supergiants' ( RPS) skipper, MS Dhoni may use coloured bats in the upcoming Indian Premier League season. Reportedly, Cameron Merchant, the cricket manager at Spartan Sports (the company which sponsors Dhoni's bat) has revealed that. Caribbean players Chris Gayle and Andre Russell are sporting coloured willows during the ongoing Big Bash League (BBL) 2016-17. Following that, Dhoni too is likely to play with a coloured bat during the Indian Twenty20 extravaganza. And promoters believe that Captain Cool's association with coloured bats will make it popular.

"Dhoni is more than welcome to use a coloured bat (in IPL). He is such an amazing role model, influential cricketer and kids look up to him," Merchant was quoted as saying in a report in Firstpost.

Dhoni had signed a big bat endorsement deal with Spartan in 2013. The other cricketers associated with the sports equipment-maker are former Australian captain Michael Clarke, Mitchell Johnson, Gayle and Russell, England’s Test and ODI skipper Alastair Cook and Eoin Morgan, respectively, West Indies batting great Vivian Richards and Sri Lanka's woman cricketer Sripali Weerakkody.
