"I am really excited about this partnership with Castrol since they are one of the world's great brands and have the same passion for performance that I have on the field," Sachin said.
"Their oils are known for consistently delivering under extreme pressure situations, again something I am quite familiar with. I am also very passionate about motorsport with which Castrol has been associated for over a century. So to me, this partnership seems to be the perfect fit," he added.
Sachin joins an illustrious list of Castrol Brand Ambassadors who over the years have included legends such as Cristiano Ronaldo, David Beckham, Rahul Dravid and Adam Gilchrist.
Sachin will be the face of Castrol cricket initiatives that will revolve around the passion, innovation and technology that go behind delivering "Winning Performances" as well as promoting Castrol's leading brands like Castrol Power1, Activ and GTX.
