The multi-year deal will see Baseline managing all the commercial interests of Garg.
Born in Meerut, UP, Garg made his first-class debut against Goa in 2018 where he went on to score an unbeaten 117.
He recently led the Under-19 Indian team at the World Cup in South Africa where they finished runners-up.
“I am excited to be represented by Baseline. They have helped build the careers of many young talents by guiding them in the right direction. I look forward to a great partnership with them,” Garg said.
Garg has an impressive first-class record where he averages 66.69 in his 16 innings for his home state Uttar Pradesh. The youngster has made rapid strides since his breakout debut and was one of the most sort-after players at the IPL auction in December. After some intense bidding between the Kings XI Punjab and Sunrisers Hyderabad, he was finally bought by Sunrisers for Rs 1.9 crore (base price Rs 20 lakhs).
“Priyam is a wonderful talent and a natural leader. At Baseline, we have always believed in helping athletes right from the start of their careers and helping them build their brands as their career grows. We are excited to welcome him on board and become a part of the Baseline family,” said Tuhin Mishra, managing director, Baseline Ventures.
Baseline also represents Garg’s under-19 teammates, vice-captain Divyaansh Saxena, player of the tournament Yashasvi Jaiswal and wicket-keeper Dhruv Jurel.
The company also represents and manages PV Sindhu, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Smriti Mandhana, Prithvi Shaw, Pankaj Advani, Apurvi Chandela, Saurav Ghosal and Joshna Chinappa.
