Cricket keeps youth away from vices Sohail Khan at TPL launch.

Dusshera is the day where good triumphs over evil.

And what could be more auspicious than to launch the Tony Premiere League

(TPL), an initiative by Daanish Hingora and Naren Moriani.

“TPL is an initiative where we, childhood friends from

Bandra, come together on the field to relive the good old days. I am not an

underarm cricketer but I am here with my friends” says Sohail Khan, the owner

of Mumbai Heroes, when he unveiled the TPL Trophy in the presence of Daanish

Hingora, Narein Moriani, Rahul Kanal and the team owners of TPL at the players’

auction at Taj Land’s End, Bandra.

Add Daanish Hingora and Naren Moriani, Founders and

Team Owners of TPL, “Today in this era of mobile and computer games, cricket

comes like a breath of fresh air”.

Avers Rahul Kanal, Team Onwer, I Love Mumbai, and a

pillar of strength to TPL, “Cricket becomes a platform for us to unite people

and have fun on the field as well”.

Lauding Aaditya Thackeray’s move to have the

exhibition match between Yuva Mumbai and Mumbai Heroes on November 3 followed

by the TPL matches, Sohail Khan also seconds Daanish Hingora and Naren Moriani’s

opinion. “I completely agree with Daanish and Naren on their thought of the

need for cricket to precede over computer games. I am a father of two children

and I encourage my children to go out and play. Games keep you away from vices.

And Aaditya Thackeray with his move to promote games among youth is doing just

that. We are with him at every step and as a youth icon, he inspires by example”.

Interestingly,

Tony Premiere League (TPL), as the premiere underarm league of Mumbai that has

set an example for many to follow as well.
