This is for the first time that Board of Cricket Control in India (BCCI) is organising an inter-corporate cricket tournament. This tournament has been sponsored by Sahara (real estate) and the prize money for the winning team is Rs.10 million (Rs.1 crore).

Total 12 teams are participating in the tournament but only three teams- Air India Blue, Indian Revenue and ITC-will play at the PCA stadium.

On the sale of tickets, Kapoor said, 'The response has been lukewarm so far. I think people are not aware about the arrival of star players like Dhoni, Harbhajan and R.P. Singh. But we are expecting the sale of tickets to pick up from tomorrow.'

The PCA stadium has got four matches of the tournament, including second semi-final match Sep 6.

All the 50-over matches will be a day-night affair.
