The second edition of the Women's Premier League (WPL) will begin in Bengaluru on Friday with last year's finalists Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals taking on each other in the tournament opener.
Ahead of the clash, an opening ceremony featuring some of the leading Bollywood names such as Shah Rukh Khan, Tiger Shroff, Shahid Kapoor and others will entertain the crowd, who are likely to come in large numbers for the match.
On Thursday, Khan was seen rehearsing to some of his chartbusting numbers from last year, including "Jhoome Jo Pathaan" from "Pathaan", the video of which was shared on social media and went viral.
