The charismatic ceremony was enhanced by the Canadian singer AP Dhillon, who is of Indian descent. His electrifying stage performance drove the crowds wild.

Before the first ball was bowled, the WPL generated hundreds of millions of dollars and attracted a raucous fan following in the cricket-crazy nation.
The WPL is the second-most valuable domestic women’s sport league internationally, after only US professional basketball in terms of franchise and broadcast rights, having brought in little less than $700 million for the Indian Cricket Board.
