"One of the most well known faces and voices of global cinema, Amitabh Bachchan, announced today that he will be co-owner of the OUE Singapore Slammers alongside the local company UD Group who acquired the team earlier this year," Singapore Slammers said in a statement.
Bachchan will make a courtside appearance on December 20 at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on the final day of the season. He will also be interacting with fans during the course of the day.
The OUE Singapore Slammers, co-owned by the UD Group and Bachchan, are one of the five teams competing in the second edition of the IPTL. Singapore will host the final leg of the competition from December 18-20 to determine who will be the league champion for 2015.
"My work schedule allows me to only be there for one day, but I'm confident the Singapore Slammers will be playing in the final. I'm also really looking forward to hanging out with members of our clan, the #SlammersNation. I'd like to invite my fans and tennis fans alike to come spend the day with me at the Singapore Indoor Stadium," Bachchan said in a statement.
Joining the OUE Singapore Slammers at the Singapore Indoor Stadium will be the UAE Royals, Indian Aces, Philippine Mavericks and Japan Warriors -- the newest addition to the season -- bringing 35 of the world's top tennis stars into town for the three-day league climax.
