Pragyan Ojha, before this coming season, formerly an Indian spinner, has been staged in the League Commissioner role for The Legenz T10. The garnished venue will be the Pink City, Jaipur, on June 25, setting a stage for the fast-paced T10 thrills. Both teams get to play for just 10 overs each.
Ojha has played in 24 Tests, 18 ODIs, and 6 T20Is for India and will manage the League operations to provide smooth functioning and further growth opportunities. The Legenz T10 is meant to shine the spotlight on Indian street cricketers, hence the tagline ‘Gali Se TV Tak,’ meaning from streets to TV screens.
In a press statement, Ojha showed excitement about being associated with the league and said that he looks forward to working alongside ardent players to build something extraordinary. The Legenz T10 chairman Venkatesh Prasad also weighed in, mentioning that he had witnessed so much talent in the local level that the league is basically meant for taking that talent to the next level.

Players wishing to join will have to submit a video that shows them batting or bowling for six balls. In return for all that registering, one will be awarded with a custom-made cricket bat. On the submissions shortlisted, 5,000 best players will be selected for a Silver Ticket, which permits them to attend trials held in five major cities: Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, and Indore. The same group of 5,000 players will gain the privilege of one-year access to online training.
From the trials, 150 best players will earn a Golden Ticket, while 72 of them will pass on to the final level of selection through an auction to play in The Legenz T10 League. The remaining 78 keep their Golden Ticket for a spot in the next season.
