How many teams does Kavya Maran own?

It all started with the now famous and exceedingly competitive Sunrisers Hyderabad cricket team in the IPL, which is home to not just the great VVS Laxman, our national cricketing hero but the erstwhile Deccan Chargers who didn’t take long to claim their IPL title. But then after all of after all of the good and experienced cricketers in the premium franchise league, there’s been the colour Orange, which is marked with positivism and a sense of splendour. And as one can note well today- Abhishek Sharma’s daunting batting for SRH and the lady in charge of the team that makes frequent noises with the cricket bat. Kavya Maran.

Here’s what you may find interesting.

Kavya Maran, the young and successful businesswoman from Chennai, is widely recognised as the co-owner and CEO of Sunrisers Hyderabad, helping shape the team’s identity and strategy in one of cricket’s most competitive leagues.

But then there remains the question that how many teams does Kavya Maran actually own? She isn’t just involved with a single team.

Beyond Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL, Kavya also plays a major role in other cricket ventures under the Sun Group umbrella — the media and sports conglomerate led by her family.

In all, the young entrepreneur who imbues a spirit of positivity and confidence is associated with three professional cricket teams across different leagues around the world.
