2. THE CONCEPT
This is a television show that mixes the craze of
cricket with the drama of reality shows. Mix ‘n’ match
of live and scripted programming that will keep everyone
guessing. This is T – 10 gully cricket.
This would be a nation wide gully cricket tournament to be held in multiple
cities. The elimination rounds would be held in different cities for a single
day each. There would be a lot of pre-tournament hype and excitement built
around the event with a substantial Television celebrity quotient thrown in for
good measure.
This concept has been conceived, formatted & executed by Reasonable
Advertising Pvt. Ltd., in partnership with DD Marketing Division,
Doordarshan.

5. FORMAT
The event in each city would feature four teams comprising of eleven
players each. All the players would be amateurs who will get an opportunity to
live their fantasies on a big stage they have been deprived of till date.
This would be an excellent aspirational value which will drive the players/contestants who will all
contribute to making this a grand reality show. Top team from each city would qualify to play for the
finals to be staged in Mumbai. These eight teams after qualifying for the final play-off would be divided
into two groups of 4 each with the TOP 2 teams of each group qualifying for the semi-finals. The winner
of Group A would meet the runners up of Group B in the first semis while the winner of
Group B would meet the runners up of Group A in the other semis which would
then be followed by the finals and would witness an eventual winner of the
tournament. This would be a biannual with the first one to be staged
in Jan/Feb 2009.
