EPL Pvt Ltd is coming up with a remodeled version of Everest Premier League -- a Twenty20 cricket tournament that carries a historical cash prize for the winners. The tournament which was previously played between corporate franchises will now be a city-based franchise league and will give away a whopping cash prize of Rs 2.1 million. The total cash prize is Rs 600,000 more than what Dhangadhi Premier League winners received earlier this year.
According to Aamir Akhtar, EPL Founder, the tournament will be held in December after a round of auction of the players. While each team will have 15 players, 10 of them will be included through auction. It is mandatory for all the teams have three foreign recruits and one player should be included through an open talent hunt in the respected city. Also, one marquee player (optional) could also be considered. Kathmandu, Lalitpur, Bhairahawa, Biratnagar, Birgunj and Pokhara will be the four city franchises in the tournament, while the owners and the team details will be revealed in due course. All the matches of the tournament will be held at the TU grounds. The organizers say they have made arrangements to involve vendors, event managers and entertainment that have had experience working in the Indian Premier League to ensure efficiency in management and an Elevated cricketainment experience on the ground. see more news click here
