Sports news portal<a href="https://www.instagram.com/1xbatsportinglines/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"> 1xBat Sporting Lines</a> has become the sponsor of the Entertainers Cricket League Season 2, which will be held from March 5 to March 16, 2025. After a successful inaugural season, the second season of the ECL promises to provide cricket fans with even more thrilling matches and entertainment.
The Entertainers Cricket League (ECL) is a unique T10 format cricket league that brings together popular influencers, entertainment industry stars, and talented street players.
The ECL quickly gained popularity by combining a beloved sport with entertainment, attracting a wide audience of cricket fans and influencers. The league actively interacts with fans through social media - particularly Instagram, where regular updates and announcements are posted. Through celebrity involvement and integration with digital platforms, the ECL helps popularise cricket among young people and expands the boundaries of traditional sporting events in India.
"Entertainment and sport are at the core of our business, as they are for the Entertainers Cricket League (ECL). We aim to support and promote cricket and share the values behind the creation and development of the Entertainers Cricket League. That's why we're delighted to sign this partnership with the league - to strengthen its influence and grow the popularity of this sport," comments a representative from 1xBat.
Each team participating in the ECL consists of 20 players selected through an auction. This year's auction was held on January 13, and the most expensive player of the new season was cricketer Bobby Yadav, who cost Lucknow Lions 2.80 crore. Second on the list was YouTuber Zala Vanrajsinh, who cost Bangalore Bashers 2.60 crore, while Haryanvi Hunters' acquisition Vishal Choudhary came in third with a price tag of 2.50 crore.
In the second season of ECL, the number of teams has increased from five to eight:
Haryanvi Hunters - captained by Elvish Yadav (YouTuber, Singer)
Lucknow Lions - captained by Anurag Dwivedi (Fantasy Cricket Expert, YouTuber, Cricket Analyst).
Mumbai Disruptors - captained by Munawar Faruqui (Stand-up comedian, YouTuber, Rapper, Singer)

As a result, fans will see more new faces on the pitch, making the tournament more competitive and exciting.
In the league's regular season, all teams will face each opponent twice, thus playing&nbsp; 32 Matches. At the end of the season, the top four teams in the league will progress to the play-offs to compete for the title of Entertainers Cricket League Season 2 champions. Haryanvi Hunters, led by captain Elvish Yadav, won the inaugural season of the ECL.
Under the terms of the signed sponsorship agreement, the 1xBat logo will be displayed on stadium advertising boards during games. 1xBat will also actively cover the ECL tournament on its digital platform and social media, with the league's top influencers reposting the brand's posts to their many subscribers.
