big companies, will take part in the tennis ball cricket tournament. Matches will be 12-over affairs and held in day-and-night format. There will be 8 groups; 4 teams in each group.  Each team will play a minimum of 3 matches. Two teams from each group will qualify to
next level.”

A bat with signatures of all the captains will be auctioned at the end
of the league. The proceeds from the auction will be utilized for
benefit of the blind people, he added.
