Kolkata : The ‘first-ever’ IPL-style Bengal Pro T20 League incepted by The Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) and exclusively managed by Arivaa Sports featuring both men's and women's teams will be held from June 11 to June 28, creating a landmark in the history of state-run T20 Franchise leagues in Indian Cricket.
CAB President Snehasish Ganguly said, “The inaugural day will only feature 1 men’s match in the evening slot. The women’s league shall start the next day with double headers each day and end on the same day of the men’s, that is on 28th of June, just a day before the ICC T20 World.”
While the men’s matches shall commence from June 11 at the Eden Gardens, the women’s matches will start from June 12 at the Jadavpur University, Salt Lake Campus Ground.
The exact schedule of the League will be released closer to the dates.
Most of the days there will be double headers with each team playing against each other once, according to reports.
