We all know that cricket is one of the most celebrated sports in India, and Indian cricket players are among the highest-paid sports personalities in the country. While many play this sport and earn from it, a new trend among youngsters has emerged where they don’t physically play cricket but earn by creating a virtual team and devising strategies on online platforms. There are people who earn substantial amounts from these online ventures, and Anurag Dwivedi is one such person. He’s a 21-year-old fantasy cricket expert from Uttar Pradesh, and here is a list of luxury cars that he owns.
Anurag Dwivedi’s garage boasts cars like the Maruti Dzire, Ford Endeavour, Mahindra Thar, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, BMW 7-Series, BMW Z4, and a Land Rover Defender 130. However, Anurag had a very humble beginning.
Cycle
If you check Anurag’s Instagram profile, you’ll see a picture of him with a cycle, which he mentions is where it all started. Anurag did not come from a wealthy background. He had very humble beginnings and initially aspired to be a cricket player. However, due to personal reasons, he couldn’t fulfill that dream. He pursued his passion in a different manner and became a fantasy cricket expert online. During his early days, he owned a regular Atlas bicycle commonly seen on the roads, not an expensive model that costs lakhs.
Maruti Dzire
This was likely the first car he owned. On his Instagram page, there’s a picture of him posing with his Dzire. The red-colored Maruti Dzire is a current-generation pre-facelift model. It doesn’t appear to be the top-end variant as it lacks LED DRLs, projector headlamps, and fog lamps.
BMW 7-Series
Next in Anurag’s garage is a BMW 7-Series, seemingly the F01 or fifth-generation luxury sedan. This car is extremely popular among Indian celebrities. Anurag purchased his 7-Series from a used car dealer, seemingly opting for the diesel version.
Ford Endeavour
Following is a Ford Endeavour. He acquired this SUV in 2021, the BS6 version equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel engine paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. He bought the black-shaded SUV, presumably the 4×4 variant.
Mercedes-Benz E-Class
This was the fourth car that Anurag owned. Last year, he took delivery of this luxury sedan with his family. The black sedan looks exquisite, and it seems he opted for the 350d variant, equipped with a 3.0-liter inline-6 engine generating 286 Ps and 600 Nm of torque. This luxury sedan cost around Rs 80 lakh, ex-showroom, at the time of launch.
Mahindra Thar
Next on the list is the Mahindra Thar, one of the most anticipated SUVs from Mahindra, which Anurag purchased earlier this year. It’s unclear whether he opted for the 4×4 or RWD variant. Once again, he chose the SUV in black.
BMW Z4
Anurag also possesses a brand new BMW Z4 sports car, purchased in 2022. In his post, he mentions searching for a red Z4 across the country and eventually finding one in Delhi. This current-generation Z4 sports car runs on a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged engine generating 335 bhp and 500 Nm of peak torque. The M40i variant of Z4 costs Rs 89.30 lakh, ex-showroom.
Land Rover Defender 130
The latest addition to Anurag’s collection is a white mammoth Land Rover Defender 130 SUV. He took delivery of this huge SUV in June this year. This Defender 130 is the 8-seater version of the Defender 5-door SUV, likely the first to be delivered in Uttar Pradesh. Priced at around Rs 1.41 crore, ex-showroom, it’s probably the most expensive car in his garage.
