The Indian Street Premier League ISPL T10 Cricket Championship, taking place from March 2-5, 2024 and featuring teams from six cities such as Hyderabad, is an invaluable opportunity for tennis-ball-style cricket players in Hyderabad’s byways.
ISPL Selection Committee HOD Jatin Parnjpe announced that selection will occur during the last week or two of January. Around 350 players across six cities will be selected based on videos uploaded by candidates for tennis-ball Cricket.
He stated that by watching videos, he could quickly identify those with the potential to go onto higher levels – and without the involvement of BCCI.
Paranjpe stated that due to tennis-ball Cricket’s growing popularity in rural areas, talent-scouting teams will reach our initial goal of expanding to second-tier cities through ISPL auctions.
He suggested a base price per player of Rs3 lakh with maximum amounts of up to 50 lakh being auctioned off each player at once.
Paranjpe indicated, “Players for ISPL will be chosen by Pravin Amre, an ex-India cricketer. Both myself and Pravin will oversee player selection.
ISPL provides an ideal platform for those aspiring to succeed – some notable names being Mohd Siraj (from this city), Umesh Yadav from Mumbai and Umran Malik of Jammu and Kashmir.”
Former cricketer S.K. Kamaruddin Kamaruddin is heavily involved with ISPL and believes all tennis-ball players possess the talent needed for success.
