Sara Tendulkar Shares First Glimpse Of Mumbai Grizzlies Ahead Of GEPL Opener
Ahead of the opening match, Sara Tendulkar has unveiled the Mumbai Grizzlies squad, giving fans their first behind-the-scenes look at one of the tournament's title contenders.
On Tuesday evening, Sara Tendulkar gave fans a glimpse of her Mumbai Grizzlies squad ahead of the new season of the Global eCricket Premier League (GEPL), sharing Instagram Stories and featuring the franchise’s players just days before the tournament begins.
The images showed eight young eCricket athletes in the team’s black-and-lime jerseys, accompanied by a simple caption: “It’s almost @mumbai_grizzlies_gepl season again.” The story featured a selfie with the full squad, offering one of the first public glimpses of the team before the league gets underway.
The athletes behind Sara’s team compete on a different pitch. Mumbai Grizzlies are among the eight city-based franchises in GEPL, India’s premier franchise eCricket league.
The franchise heads into the new season with unfinished business. Mumbai Grizzlies finished runners-up last year and will be looking to go one step further when the competition begins in Pune on August 1, 2026.
For Sara Tendulkar, this also marks her second season backing the franchise. Having grown up around India’s biggest cricket stages, she now returns in a very different role - as the face behind one of the league’s title contenders.
GEPL Season 2 will run from August 1 to August 9 in Pune, with matches broadcast on Star Sports and streamed live on JioHotstar.
