Commenting on the development, Raman Raheja, CEO and Co-Founder of Legends League Cricket said, “This is one in a lifetime opportunity we are creating for the fans. More than 1,000 fans will get a chance to be with legend cricketers for over a period of two months. We want to mesmerise and engage fans in every possible way. For the first time ever, Legends League Cricket is revolutionixing the cricketing landscape by combining the thrill of the game with the luxury of a cruise in the breathtaking Caribbean Islands.

To tap into India’s domestic tourism potential, MSC Cruises, Norwegian, Royal Caribbean Cruise and Costa will bring their respective vessels in India for the winter season. India’s cruise industry aims to increase the number of passengers from 0.2 million in 2016 to four million by 2041. Additionally, the sector’s revenue is projected to grow from INR 712 crore in 2016 to INR 35,500 crore by 2041.
