Featuring eight teams, including one from Pakistan, the tournament will be played for four months in USA, England, Canada, UAE and India. What makes it unique is the presence of international players in all the teams, two of them co-owned by Akshay (Khalsa Warriors) and Sonakshi (United Singhs).
The matches will be of four quarters of 12 minutes each with a three-minute break between the first and second and the third and fourth quarters.
