The league will feature a total of six franchises and a total of 33 matches will be played between these teams. This league is considered to be an important step in promoting not only the level of cricket in Europe.
Purpose of the European T20 Premier League
The main objective of the European T20 Premier League is to provide a new platform to cricket in Europe. Organizing this league will help in recognizing the regional talent and promote cricket at the local level. Apart from this, this league is also an important step in bringing European cricket on a global platform. The popularity of cricket in European countries is increasing rapidly and this league will help in making this game more popular. The decision to organise the league has been taken by three countries – Ireland, Scotland and the Netherlands. This is an example of the unprecedented cooperation and partnership to promote cricket between these countries. The special thing is that the cricket boards of these countries will organize this league together, which is usually done by the cricket board of one country.
Abhishek Bachchan’s contribution
Bollywood actor Abhishek Bachchan is very active on social media. He is the promoter and co-founder of this league. Speaking about the league at a press conference in Dublin on March 18, Abhishek said: This league is a great opportunity to give a new lease of life to cricket in Europe. I’m really excited to be a part of this league. The aim is not only to promote cricket in Europe but also to give recognition to local talent. “Abhishek Bachchan believes that ETPL will not only showcase the best of European cricket, but it will also present a cultural experience for fans and families. With this league, family and friends will be able to sit together and enjoy cricket and their love for this game will increase further.
Franchise-based tournaments
The European T20 Premier League will be a franchise-based tournament where owners of franchise teams and players will be selected through a draft system. The league will be based on the format of other successful T20 leagues, such as the IPL, BPL and Big Bash League. However, a different aspect of this league is that the cricket boards of the three countries will work together, which is a unique aspect in itself. A total of 33 matches will be played in the league, which will be held in Dublin and Rotterdam. These matches are expected to breathe new life into European cricket. European cricket fans will now get a chance to see their favourite players play in a new league, which will definitely be a great experience for them.
