COLORS, Rajasthan Royals launch cricket reality show

COLORS and Royals Sports Group-owned franchise Rajasthan Royals announced the launch of their brand-new cricket reality show, ‘Cricket Ka Ticket’.

From March 19, 2023, cricket fans across the country will be able to watch the show on Viacom18‘s flagship Hindi entertainment channel COLORS, and Jio Cinema. Mandira Bedi, a well-known TV presenter, will host the first episode of the show.

A selected pool of 22 talented cricketers has reached the Rajasthan Royals High-Performance Centre in Talegaon, Nagpur, chosen from lakhs of applicants who had registered for trials in December 2022.

These uncapped and raw players will be given a once-in-a-lifetime chance to realize their cricket dreams.

Trials for ‘Cricket Ka Ticket’ was held in multiple cities across the country for both men and women over the age of 18.

This cricket reality show provides a platform for those who have aspired to play professional cricket at the highest level to showcase their abilities.

These selected players will be on an 8-week-long intense journey under the watchful mentorship of cricket experts who will work on their fitness, discipline, technique, and several other aspects of the game.

The show will witness a star-studded line-up of judges and guest walk-ins like Mohammad Kaif, Aakash Chopra, Jaya Sharma, Munaf Patel, Suresh Raina, Murali Kartik, Pravin Tambe, and MC Mary Kom.

Furthermore, Rajasthan Royals players such as captain Sanju Samson, top-order batters Devdutt Padikkal and Yashasvi Jaiswal, and pacer Navdeep Saini will grace the occasion and interact with the talented pool of selected players. The legendary Sri Lankan duo of Kumar Sangakkara and Lasith Malinga, who are part of the Royals coaching staff, will also be in attendance for the finale.

The ultimate goal for each of these chosen men and women cricketers will be to bag the golden opportunity of appearing for trials with the Rajasthan Royals and other women’s T20 teams, along with a 1-year mentorship program with Rajasthan Royals coaches, mentors, and players. A cash prize of 5 lacs will also be awarded to one male and one female winner.

Vivek Mohan Sharma, Head – of Branded Content, Viacom18 commenting on the partnership, said, “COLORS has been at the forefront of creating ground-breaking reality shows and tentpole properties. Cricket remains a unifying sport for people in India and each of them dreams to become a professional cricketer and play at the highest level. ‘Cricket Ka Ticket’ will be a unique platform where we merge cricket with entertainment, to provide a complete package of ‘Cricketainment’ for the audience and brands alike. Such impactful content goes a long way to foster audience engagement and leverage brand associations.”
