Indian Street Premier League: Majhi Mumbai eventually clinched the title after pipping Srinagar Ke Veer by three wickets in a nail-biting summit clash as the curtains drew on an electrifying second season of the Indian Street Premier League (ISPL) at the jam-packed Dadoji Kondadev Stadium here on Saturday. The tournament truly lived up to its billing of a dazzling spectacle of cricketing brilliance as Majhi Mumbai emerged as the winner.

The capacity crowd was treated to a riveting contest as the match went down to the wire, with fortunes swinging both ways, before Mumbai, the runners-up of the inaugural ISPL season, finally got home with Ankur’s gigantic six. Every six smashed, every wicket taken and every dive on the field echoed the spirit of all those who grew up playing with a tennis ball. Bringing together the raw energy of young guns and the masterful experience of seasoned campaigners, the 20-day tournament was a perfect symphony of edge-of-the-seat thrillers and captivating musical performances.

Tendulkar, along with fellow members of the ISPL core committee, including Ashish Shelar, Suraj Samat, and Minal Amol Kale graced the final along with Bollywood superstars Amitabh Bachchan and Akshay Kumar — the owners of the ISPL, Season 2 finalists — Majhi Mumbai and Srinagar Ke Veer.
