The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has reportedly roped in Muthoot Fincorp as the title sponsor for the next two home seasons of Indian cricket. The development comes at a time when the Indian men's cricket team is set to host the West Indies in their home white-ball series.

As per a report by Cricbuzz, the BCCI has locked in the deal at a base price of INR 4.85 crore per match. The report added that the high base price left little room for bidders. India are set to host the West Indies for three ODIs and five T20Is, which is slated to begin on September 27.
