T20 Mumbai League\u2019s men\u2019s tournament comprising eight teams will be held after the conclusion of the Indian Premier League, and will also have the inaugural women\u2019s league of three teams running concurrently.<\/p>\n

The tournament, which has seen the rise of Indian T20 star such as Shivam Dube, returned after a hiatus last year for its third edition and was held right after the end of the IPL last year.<\/p>\n

Former India skipper and Mumbai player Rohit Sharma, who is also the face of the league, said that the tournament is essential for the growth of the city\u2019s players.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m very happy with how Mumbai cricket is shaping up, not just in the IPL team, but also with what the T20 Mumbai League has done for many young cricketers,\u201d Rohit said at an event here to announce the fourth edition for the men\u2019s event and the first-ever edition for women\u2019s.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe saw so many cricketers who played in the T20 Mumbai now go on to play for IPL teams and the national team as well. It is a big platform. I\u2019m happy that we are doing this again after a very successful last season.\u201d The tournament was held in a very short window across two venues last year due to a delayed finish of the IPL as well as an advancing monsoon season.<\/p>\n

Sayali Satghare, who made her Test debut for India Women\u2019s on their recent tour of Australia, welcomed the launch of the women\u2019s T20 Mumbai.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe T20 Mumbai Women\u2019s League will give many young girls the opportunity to dream bigger, compete at a high level and believe that they too can represent Mumbai and India one day,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Mumbai Cricket Association president Ajinkya Naik said the inaugural edition of the women\u2019s league is an important milestone for the governing body.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe T20 Mumbai League reflects that philosophy by providing talented cricketers from across the city a professional stage to showcase their abilities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe launch of the T20 Mumbai Women\u2019s League is an important milestone for us. Women\u2019s cricket is growing rapidly, and it is essential that we create strong platforms that allow talented players to compete, develop and progress to higher levels of the game.\u201d<\/p>\n
