**Thane, India (IANS) –** Majhi Mumbai defeated Srinagar Ke Veer by three wickets in a nail-biting final to win the second season of the Indian Street Premier League (ISPL) on Saturday. The match, played before a capacity crowd at the Dadoji Kondadev Stadium, saw a thrilling contest that went down to the wire.

Srinagar Ke Veer, batting first, posted a tournament-high 120/5, thanks largely to an unbeaten 59 from Akash Tarekar and a 40 from Sagar Ali, who put on a 108-run opening partnership. Abhishek Kumar Dalhor, already the leading wicket-taker of the season, took two more wickets for Mumbai, bringing his total to 24.

Mumbai’s chase was shaky, losing six wickets for 64 runs. However, captain Vijay Pawle (22*) and Birendra (14*) steadied the ship, capitalizing on a 39-run over to bring their team within striking distance. Ankur’s final-ball six secured a dramatic victory for Majhi Mumbai.

The ISPL, endorsed by Sachin Tendulkar and featuring Bollywood stars Amitabh Bachchan and Akshay Kumar as team owners, showcases the talent of street cricketers. This season saw Abhishek Kumar Dalhor become the most expensive player, sold for Rs 20.50 lakh. The tournament highlighted the transformation of dreams into reality, proving that cricketing stars can emerge from anywhere.
