T20 Mumbai League 2025, Season 3: Get ready for a cricketing carnival in the heart of the Maximum City as the iconic Wankhede Stadium is all set to host Season 3 of the T20 Mumbai League from May 26 to June 8, the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) officially confirmed on Tuesday.

Reverberating with the spirit of Mumbai, this 14-day extravaganza promises to be a melting pot of emerging cricketing talent, high-octane action, and unforgettable memories - all unfolding in one of the most iconic cricketing venues in the world.

Wankhede: The Beating Heart of Mumbai Cricket

There's something special about the Wankhede Stadium. Maybe it's the sea breeze mingling with the floodlights, or the deafening cheer when a local hero hits a six. From Sachin Tendulkar's emotional farewell to India's historic 2011 World Cup win, Wankhede isn't just a ground - it's a sacred space for fans. Now, as it prepares to host the third edition of the T20 Mumbai League, it welcomes not just fans but dreamers.

A Platform of Possibilities

The T20 Mumbai League has, in its brief yet impactful existence, created ripples in the Indian domestic cricketing scene. Players like Shivam Dube, Tushar Deshpande, and Shams Mulani used this platform to springboard their careers onto the national stage.

Season 3 carries the same mission - to spot and nurture raw talent from the gullies of Mumbai and transform them into household names. With over 2,800 players registering this year, the competition is set to be fiercer, hungrier, and more entertaining than ever.

MCA’s Heartwarming Gesture: Cricket for All

In a move that reflects the spirit of inclusivity and the transformative power of sport, the Mumbai Cricket Association will invite underprivileged children and BMC school students to witness the live matches from the stands. This thoughtful initiative aims to offer these young fans not just a matchday experience, but a window into dreams, as they watch their city’s finest talents take centre stage.

“Watching star players live is incredibly inspiring for the next generation, and we want to use this opportunity to bring underprivileged children and BMC school students to the stadium — encouraging them to get inspired and dream big,”
– MCA President Ajinkya Naik

Rohit Sharma: The Face of Season 3

In a major boost to the league’s stature, Rohit Sharma, India’s captain and Mumbai’s favourite son, has been unveiled as the official face of Season 3. His association brings a new level of excitement and authenticity to the tournament. The "Hitman" has always been vocal about supporting Mumbai’s grassroots cricket, and his presence reinforces the league’s mission.
