The Chhattisgarh State Cricket Sangh (CSCS) has announced that the second season of the Chhattisgarh Cricket Premier League (CCPL) will be held from June 6 to June 15. All the matches will be played at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Cricket Stadium in Nava Raipur.

The first season was a big success, with seven players from the state getting picked in the IPL auction. Now, the CCPL is back, and this year’s tournament is expected to be even bigger. It has become a great platform for young players in Chhattisgarh to show their talent.
