Mumbai, April 20 (IANS) Pro Star League, an under-16 cricket tournament which aims to identify and nurture talent at the grassroots, will begin the hunt for the best upcoming cricketers in India through a national-level mentorship camp, starting April 21.

Twenty six teams from the four zones -- north, south, east, west -- qualified for the mentorship phase, where over 900 schools battled for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be mentored by the legends.
