Aspiring cricketers from across the country can register now for trials in 55 cities, divided into five competitive zones, offering amazing opportunities for new talent.
The trial process begins at the city level, where the best performers advance to the Zone Level.

Each zone has specific dates for its final trials, with Central and South Zones kicking off from October 26th to 28th, East and North Zones from November 2nd to 4th, and West Zone from November 5th to 9th.
The process culminates in Simulation Matches on November 12th and 13th, 2024, giving these athletes one final platform to showcase their abilities before the auction. This season ISPL is also inviting organizations and individuals to host registration camps and register a minimum of 1500 players to establish their city as an official trial location. This initiative empowers communities to directly support aspiring cricketers and receive recognition from ISPL.
ISPL’s inaugural season in March captivated audiences, drawing over 12,000 fans per match. Over 5 lakh fans attended the tournament, which was filled with entertainment extravaganza. From the star-studded opening ceremony to the nail-biting matches, the league offered a perfect blend of sports and entertainment. Innovative features like the ‘Tip Top’ toss, the 50/50 challenge, ‘Tape Ball Over,’ and ‘9 Street Runs’ added layers of excitement, making every match a thrilling experience for fans.
Legends such as Amitabh Bachchan (Majhi Mumbai), Akshay Kumar (Srinagar Ke Veer), Hrithik Roshan (KVN Bangalore Strikers), Saif Ali and Kareena Kapoor Khan (Tiigers of Kolkata), Ram Charan (Falcon Riders Hyderabad), and Suriya Sivakumar (Chennai Singams) bring unparalleled star power, making ISPL a premier event that resonates with cricket fans nationwide. The Tiigers of Kolkata, owned by Saif and Kareena Kapoor Khan, were crowned champions of the inaugural edition, defeating Majhi Mumbai in a thrilling final.
Sachin Tendulkar, Core Committee Member, ISPL said, “The ISPL is about giving a platform to those who may not have had the opportunity to showcase their talent. The tournament has brought the joy of the game to new audiences and opened doors for young cricketers across the country. It is my hope that the league continues to grow and make a lasting impact on Indian cricket, giving every player a chance to dream big.”
