Playing any form of sport has always been one aspect which we tend to neglect after we cross a certain age as we all are busy with different set of commitments. However, we do tend to forget that giving yourself some time and giving some time on your mental and physical well being is equally important and what better way than to play our favorite sport i.e Cricket.
South Mumbai which is probably the financial capital of India housing big institutions like Reserve Bank of India, World trade Center, Bombay Stock Exchange, National Stock Exchange & various government institutions.
South Mumbai also boasts of hyper influential industrialists, corporate houses, businessman, bollywood celebrities & a great nightlife but one thing which has been slightly neglected is a proper Cricket tournament for the people of SOBO i.e South Bombay.
In a first of its kind initiative for the SOBO people, SMPL will kickstart soon from 7th December which will have 8 teams competing for the coveted title of South Mumbai Premier League’19. The finals will be played at the iconic DY Patil Ground (Talegaon) while the two finalist teams will be residing in Taj Hotel before their final matchday.
