Recently retired Yuvraj Singh and the \u2018Universe Boss\u2019 Gayle launched the event to be held tentatlively from Feb 18 to 23, 2020.

Chris Gayle, easily the most sought after batsman in white ball cricket of this generation said \u201cI can\u2019t wait to have a practice run. \u201cIt\u2019s a new and exciting format and it\u2019s growth depends on how we start the first edition,\u201d said Yuvraj, the only batsman to hit six sixes in an over in a World Cup when he took England\u2019s Stuart Broad to the cleaners in the inaugural World T20 in 2007.<\/p>\n
For cricket fans, the event is a better version of Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Match-ups will be between two cricketers for a contest of 30 balls per player. If a player gets dismissed for a total of five times, his innings is considered to be over while each match will be determined by more number of runs scored.<\/p>\n
