Speaking at the launch, Amin Pathan, Founder of GTCL60, said, "We’re proud to launch a league that speaks to the heart of every player who has ever dreamed of going from the street to the spotlight. We will be conducting trials across 30 cities to ensure no talent is left behind. Today marks the official beginning of a league that will inspire, uplift, and transform the way tennis ball cricket is seen worldwide."
Former Indian cricketer Piyush Chawal said, "Every cricketer starts with tennis ball cricket — even I did. This league is a massive platform for young talent from the grassroots. It will give real opportunities to raw, street-level players and bring their skills to the forefront. For young cricketers, GTCL60 can be a true game-changer."
The selection process will begin with open registrations, followed by extensive selection trials to be held across 30 cities in India and abroad. From these trials, the most promising talents will be shortlisted and finally enter a professional player draft, where franchises will select their squad members.
