At an event organised by the VCA here on Saturday, the six franchises were each allotted a 16-member squad and a list of support staff. “Each squad was pre-selected by VCA's senior selection committee, ensuring good balance in the line-up to boost keen competition,” VCA said in a release. “The process of allotment of the teams involved drawing of lots. First, a draw of lots was conducted to determine the sequence (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) in which the franchises get to pick the squads. “It was followed by another draw of lots as each franchise picked a ‘bail' from the box which had the name of the team (A, B, C, D, E, F). The corresponding team lists prepared by the VCA selectors were then allotted to the franchises,” it added. Arivaa Sports Private Limited, which managed the Bengal Pro T20 League, has been given the rights to manage Vidarbha Pro T20 League as well.
