Poona Hoteliers Association (PHA) will hold the first edition of its PHA cricket premier league from today at the M A Rangoonwala sports ground. PA Inamdar will be the chief guest at the opening ceremony and the event will consist of 31 matches played in a knockout-league format, ending on February 27.
Neerav Panchamia, president of, Poona Hoteliers Association, feels that sports is the best platform to bring people together and this tourney is going to be helpful to boost the spirits of hotel employees in the city.
“There are other events in the calendar apart from sports, but sports especially keep the spirit alive. Such events are the key to people’s engagements and add value to the youth of the city. The cricket league is the first sports event of PHA, hopefully, we can expand the structure to the state level soon,” Panchamia said.
