The Kandy franchise was named Kandy Tuskers in last year’s LPL and has been renamed as Kandy Warriors for the new season.
Expressing his views, Pankaj Tripathi stated, “We are ecstatic to be a part of the Lanka Premier League as the co-owner of the Kandy Warriors.
The LPL has caught the imagination of cricket fans from around the world and we wanted to be a part of the amazing competition in the upcoming seasons.
We are eagerly looking forward to engaging with the fans and having a cracker of a season.”
Welcoming the new owners, Anil Mohan, Founder and CEO of Dubai-based production giant IPG, the official promoter of LPL, said,
“It’s a huge honour and privilege for me to welcome the new owners of the Kandy franchise.
I am certain that their passion for the game will bolster the Kandy franchise and also attract more fans to the Lanka Premier League in the upcoming seasons.”
The inaugural edition of the LPL was held in 2020 and was played in a bio-secure bubble at the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Cricket Stadium in Hambantota from November 26 till December 16, 2020.
It reached a cumulative audience of 557 million people through TV, digital-social space, and traditional media outlets.
This year there will be five teams participating in LPL.
