T20 franchise cricket

T20 franchise cricket is a professional, fast-paced variation of traditional cricket where teams are formed and owned by private franchise organizations rather than national boards. Played over 20 overs per side, it emphasizes aggressive batting and strategic play, making matches exciting and accessible. These leagues often feature international stars, attract global audiences, and are held in specific cities or countries. Examples include the Indian Premier League (IPL) and Caribbean Premier League (CPL). The franchise model promotes commercial interests and entertainment, fostering local fan engagement and expanding cricket's global reach beyond traditional formats.
