Error pushing new branch: value too great for base (error token is...

I had written the following code to check whether a push is for branch deletion:

#!/bin/bash

NULL="0000000000000000000000000000000000000000"

while read old_sha new_sha refname ; do
    echo "Stdin: [$old_sha] [$new_sha] [$refname]"

    if [[ "$new_sha" -eq "$NULL" ]]; then   # Line 17
        echo "Skipping checks..."
        continue
    fi
    ...
    ...
    ...
done


While it works fine for branch deletion, i noticed that if i create a
branch and push it to remote, i get the following error due to the
above-mentioned code:

$ git push origin rel-a
Counting objects: 5, done.

9226289d2416af4cb7365d7aaa5e382bdb3d9a89: value too great for base
(error token is "922628
9d2416af4cb7365d7aaa5e382bdb3d9a89")


Although the new branch gets pushed to remote but i'm not sure why i'm
getting this error and how can i fix it. I checked online and i get
few links where folks had similar issue but in each such case, the
error token was 08 or 09. I still tried the suggestion of using "10#"
in front of my $new_sha variable but to no avail.

Any suggestions?
