The Show
- We invited entries digitally with our partner CricHeroes, India's largest grassroots cricket platform, with close to 1 Lac men and women registering for the process. A team of coaches at the backend evaluated their uploaded videos to shortlist and invite 4,000 cricketers to in-person trials across 6 Indian cities.
- After the trials, 11 men and 11 women moved to the Royals High Performance Centre in Nagpur, where they lived together, underwent rigorous training, and took part in exciting challenges for a place in the finale that was held at the Barkatullah Khan Stadium in Jodhpur. It all came down to 7 men and 7 women who competed against each other in the finals, alongside some popular cricketers from the Rajasthan Royals team as teammates and opponents.
