In a bid to harness grassroots potential, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has proposed the 'Sher-e-Punjab Maharaja Ranjit Singh Cricket League'. The league aims to nurture world-class cricket talent by organizing matches at various levels, unveiling hidden potential in Punjab's rural and urban locales.

During discussions with the newly appointed Punjab Cricket Association (PCA) office bearers, Mann stressed the importance of this initiative, highlighting the league's role in providing opportunities for emerging players similar to the 'Khedan Watan Punjab Diyan'. This annual event has become a crucial platform for budding athletes across the state.
