Some speculated that the film was modeled on the life of Indian cricketer Raman Lamba. Gowtam Tinnanuri, the film's director, criticized the rumors, claiming that the film was not based on a factual story. Gowtam Tinnanuri said to telugucinema.com that the premise of this film was absolutely original. He also stated that there was no connection between the film and the late batsman.

Though Jersey is not a biopic, the filmmaker did draw inspiration from real-life incidents encountered by other players. In the film, the protagonist declines the position of assistant coach. Furthermore, despite opposition from his family, he continues his profession at the age of 36. In this case, the filmmaker appears to have drawn inspiration from Raman Lamba, the leading scorer in the 1996-97 Ranji Trophy season. Raman amassed 1034 runs. Also, he was 36 at the time.

In end, the main character suffers from a cardiac condition, forcing him to leave his work. The cricketer appears to have taken inspiration from an English cricketer called James Taylor. Because of his cardiac issue, James had to give up his career as well.
