Rishabh Pant
Rishabh Pant, Navdeep Saini, and Harshit Rana are some of the confirmed participants in the inaugural Delhi Premier League.

The inaugural Delhi Premier League (DPL) is set to kick off later this month, in August. The tournament, featuring both men’s and women’s teams, promises to be a star-studded affair, with the likes of Rishabh Pant, Navdeep Saini, and Harshit Rana set to participate.

DDCA chief Rohan Jaitely confirmed the participation of these star players, adding that Pant has expressed keen interest in the league. “I had a talk with Rishabh Pant, and he has promised me to participate in the league, but it only depends on his availability and national commitments. But as of now, he will be playing,” Jaitely said. Alongside the stars, the inauguration ceremony has a draft of 270 players all across Delhi, including national, U-23, and U-19.

Former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag, the league’s brand ambassador, expressed his enthusiasm for the tournament, highlighting its potential to provide opportunities for young and aspiring cricketers. “The league will surely be a fantastic opportunity for those players who work hard in the nets and didn’t get a chance in any major tournament. When I used to play in my younger days, we didn’t get this type of opportunity to play in different leagues. Now that my son is playing, I am glad that he will be getting those opportunities, so yes, it is a very great opportunity,” Sehwag said.

The DPL will be played across six teams and will feature a total of 40 matches. The tournament will be broadcast on Sports 18 and live-streamed on JioCinema.
