India's Tennis Ball Cricket League, The Legenz T10 to kick off in Jaipur

India’s biggest tennis ball cricket league, Legenz T10, kicks off in Jaipur, offering street cricketers a path to stardom with Irfan Pathan mentoring.

"We’ve all seen amazing talent in our local parks—The Legenz T10 is for them. – Venkatesh Prasad"

Jaipur, May 24

India's biggest tennis ball cricket league, The Legenz T10 is all set to get underway in Jaipur from June 25. Each match will follow the T10 format (10 overs per side), ensuring high-intensity cricket.

In a first-of-its-kind initiative, The Legenz T10 aims to transform local cricketing talent into national stars, giving players from every street, gully, and town the chance to perform under stadium lights, in front of roaring crowds, and on national television.

The league's vision is simple yet powerful: to bring the country's street cricketers into the limelight. Built on the slogan 'Gali Se TV Tak,' The Legenz T10 offers a direct path from raw passion to real recognition.

Speaking about the League, Venkatesh Prasad, Chairman of The Legenz T10, said, "We've all seen amazing talent in our local parks and gullies--young boys and men with unmatched skill and fierce hunger to perform. The Legenz T10 is for them. We're building a platform that will transform tennis ball cricket forever."

Adding excitement to the league is the involvement of former international cricketers such as Irfan Pathan, who will mentor and share the field with players. Fans can look forward to watching all T10 action live on Sony Sports Network.

Aspiring players can register by submitting a video of themselves either facing six balls or bowling six balls, accompanied by an entry fee. As a token of appreciation, every registrant will receive a custom The Legenz T10 cricket bat.

From these entries, the top 5,000 players will be shortlisted and awarded a Silver Ticket, giving them the opportunity to attend physical trials in five major cities - Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, and Indore. Additionally, these players will gain exclusive access to a one-year online cricket training module.

The best 150 players from the trials will progress to the next stage, earning the prestigious Golden Ticket. Of these, 72 players will advance to the final selection round with a Diamond Ticket through auction and will play in The Legenz T10 League.

The remaining 78 players will retain their Golden Ticket and secure a guaranteed spot in the next season of the league.

Finally! A platform for gully cricketers to shine! 🏏 This is exactly what India needs - more opportunities beyond traditional cricket structures. The 'Gali Se TV Tak' concept gives me goosebumps. Can't wait to see raw talent getting recognition!

Great initiative but I hope they keep the entry fee reasonable. Many talented players come from humble backgrounds. Also, will there be any women's version? Tennis ball cricket is equally popular among girls in many states.

T10 format with tennis ball? That's going to be fire! 🔥 Remember playing tape-ball cricket in my colony with 10-over matches - most exciting cricket ever. Hope they maintain the raw, street-style energy in this league. Irfan Pathan's involvement is a big plus!

The selection process seems very thorough - from Silver to Golden to Diamond tickets. But 5000 players for physical trials sounds chaotic. Hope they have proper infrastructure to handle such large numbers. Otherwise great concept!

The online training module for shortlisted players is a smart move. Even if someone doesn't make it to final 72, they still gain valuable skills. This could revolutionize grassroots cricket development in India. Kudos to the organizers!
