NCCL 2025 vs IPL – Why Campus Cricket is the Next Big Thing

When people hear “cricket league” in India, the IPL (Indian Premier League) comes to mind. But now, with the launch of NCCL 2025 – National Campus Cricket League, a new wave is rising. Let’s break down how NCCL is different and why it matters.
