I will be very much part taking in the event and will follow the event and the matches closely as i would be commenting on the same live and on air as well. I am gearing up for the same. I am sure I will enjoy this as it is recognised and first class cricket. And to my knowledge there is one more big tournament coming up in February with similar format and that is going to be under lights for the first time in Belgaum at Union Gymkhana.
