Expressed Gratitude To BCCI
Dehradun Warriors owner Shailendra Bhadauria said that the recognition given by BCCI to the cricket league in the states is commendable. This league will bring out talented players from every state. Earlier, players had limited tournaments available. IPL is an important tournament to make a place in Team India. But only 250 cricketers are able to reach IPL, in which some get a chance and some do not. Now with the start of T20 cricket league in the states, 250-250 children will emerge from every state. In such a situation, it will become even easier to find the talent of the players. Along with this, new players will also get plenty of opportunities to play.

The Vision Of The Prime Minister Is Commendable
Shailendra Bhadoria said that the way Prime Minister Narendra Modi encourages sportspersons inspires people. The Prime Minister is working to boost the morale of the country’s 140 crore population. This also boosts the morale of the players and those who work to promote sports also get inspired by him and are able to do better work.
Why Do Corporates Join The League?
In response to this question, Shailendra said that this class is not able to separate itself from the mainstream of society. Earlier, when there were no such tournaments, this class was not able to connect with these things and used to work to promote the sport through other means.
But now when such a league started and this class of society got a chance to come forward and do something, no one was left behind. The sport has got a big boost due to the corporates joining this league.
