T20 cricket has grown extensively over the years, and it is continuing to grow with each passing day. What once began as the launch of domestic T20 contests, has evolved into a franchise ecosystem. Multiple leagues are emerging everyday, and one of them is the Sher-e-Punjab T20 League, a T20 tournament featuring some of the most promising and talented cricketers from the state of Punjab. The league is being organised by the Punjab Cricket Association (PCA), and it kicked off on August 30. A total of six teams are participating in it, and will contest each other across 27 games at the I.S. Bindra Stadium in Mohali.
The opening game of the tournament saw Mohali Kings recording a five-wicket win over the Amritsar Soormas, owing to a splendid 51-ball 133-run knock of Anmolpreet Singh. But, what else do you need to know about the league, let’s dive right in.
