Maharashtra Premier League 2023: Teams, Squads, Schedule and Streaming details

The Maharashtra Premier League 2023 will begin on June 15 in Pune, Maharashtra.

The Maharashtra Cricket Association (MCA) will host the MPL 2023, which will feature six franchise-based teams competing in a T20 event.

Six franchises will compete in the 2019 competition: Puneri Bappa, Kolhapur Tuskers, Eagle Nashik Titans, Chhatrapati Sambhaji Kings, Ratnagiri Jets, and Solapur Royals. Pune, Kolhapur, Nashik, Sambhaji, Ratnagiri, and Solapur are represented by the six franchises.

According to the schedule, each team will face the opposing team in a round-robin manner. The top four teams will advance to the MPL playoffs in 2023.

Qualifier 1, Eliminator, Qualifier, and the Final will comprise the playoffs. The final of the MPL 2023 will take place on Thursday, June 29.

The Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune will host all MPL 2023 matches.

Some of the top Maharashtra players competing in the T20 event include Ruturaj Gaikwad, Rahul Tripathi, Kedar Jadhav, and Rajvardhan Hangargekar.

Following the successful model of the Indian T20 League, 285 players registered for the MPL 2023 auction.

The players were divided into three groups, each with a base fee of INR 60,000, INR 40,000, or INR 30,000.

Before the auction, each of the six clubs was allowed to bring in one icon player.

Interestingly, the state board organized the first MPL in 2009, but it halted after the first three editions. After a long hiatus, the franchise based T20 event has returned.
