Look, we have to take care of this one because he’s not just playing matches — he’s building an empire. And honestly, ₹32 crore at the age of 25? I always believe that it has to be done with passion, and Sundar’s journey proves it
Early Life – A Kid with Big Dreams
Personally, I think it’s beautiful how Washington comes from a simple Chennai household. His dad? A common man. His mom? A housewife. Nothing fancy — just pure hustle and dreams. He started early at Legala Cricket Academy — and like, just think if this is how it is then what to do now? You just work hard, and that’s what he did.
Cricket Career – Turning Points and Highlights
Domestic Cricket
He kicked off in Ranji Trophy 2016-17, and boom — he was already making noise.
IPL Journey
I think this is how it has to be because if you look then you will find this here — in 2018, RCB bought him for ₹3.2 crore, and later in 2022, Sunrisers Hyderabad snapped him for ₹8.75 crore. Can you believe that? ₹8.75 crore! That’s no joke — that’s big-league money.
And the guy kept going — smashing it with bat, spinning magic with ball.
Family – The Real MVPs
Washington’s support system? Super strong. His father M. Sundar and sister Shailaja Sundar (also a cricketer) have always had his back. We have to do it, and I am always excited for that — and you can clearly see how they’ve helped him bloom into who he is today.
Net Worth Breakdown
| Source | Amount |
|---|---|
| IPL Salary | ₹8.75 Cr (SRH) |
| Brand Endorsements | ₹10 Cr+ |
| BCCI & Match Fees | ₹2 Cr+ |
| Other Income | ₹1 Cr+ |
| Total Net Worth | ₹32 Cr+ |
I always believe that it has to be done — tracking where the money is coming from helps us understand how one talent can turn into a multi-crore journey.
Brand Endorsements – Power Moves Only
He’s already got big names backing him like:
- Puma
- Anker Innovations
- Gillette
- SG (Sanspareils Greenlands)
- TCL
Look, we have to take care of that one because he’s becoming a brand magnet. These deals? They’re just the beginning.
Cars – Small Garage, Big Dreams

He’s not into crazy collections like Dhoni, but his Mercedes SUV and Mahindra Thar are clean and classy. And hey, he’s only 25 — I think it can be a beast garage real soon.
