If there is one thing that the Celebrity Cricket League has proven, it is that many of our favourite stars are not only ardent fans of the gentleman’s game but also fiercely competitive while playing it. The popular cricket tournament featuring the who’s who of cricket will be back for its 10th year edition. This time around, the first set of matches between the eight teams will be held in Sharjah, after which the action moves back home with matches in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chandigarh, Vizag, Thiruvananthapuram, etc.
With only three weeks to go for the tourney to start, the organizers will have a grand curtain raiser event on February 2 in Dubai, with a spectacular showcase on the Burj Khalifa.
