Currently, ten teams have signed up, and there will be an event to select players from October 13-15.

HI has made a significant agreement with the team owners for ten years, and there’s a lot of enthusiasm about it.

Over the next ten years, ₹3,640 crore will be invested in the league.

HI will contribute ₹112 crore each year, while the teams are expected to spend around ₹18 crore each year on players and coaches.
