T5 Cricket League is an initiative by the eChai Ventures team to bring together startup folks over cricket leagues. 

T5 Cricket is certainly not the new format of Cricket.

Gully cricket has been a massive phenomenon in India and folks have been playing a similar format for ages. 

The founders of eChai Ventures met while playing cricket during engineering days. Cricket has been an integral part of the eChai Story. 

We've been playing box cricket with startup folks for many years. And recently we've started building Startup Sports Network to bring startup folks together over sports. We've added many sports formats and started many city chapters also. 

T5 Cricket League


T5 Cricket League will have company-owned teams or teams consisting of individual startup folks.

The typical format of T5 Cricket Leauge match will look like this:

- 5 overs per innings

- 5 Players per team.

- 1 Power Surge over per innings

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
