(Brightness warning) The Hyderabad Hawks are the weaker of the 2 Hyderabad teams but are more well-supported due to more accessible ticketing and being more well-managed of the two. The Hawks also have a rivalry with Vizag.

Picking up where I left off now. The Haryana Stags are a team in the Northern Division that are known to be great developers of talent (due to the sports culture of the state) but lacks success. They are situated in the North Cluster (Stags, Warriors, Knights, Renegades, Devils) and have a big rivalry with state rivals Gurgaon.

The Subcontinental League is done which means only the Indian league is left. After that , I'll move on to other leagues I've planned out before returning here for revamps, City Connect, Retro jerseys, Minor League concepts and other stuff

The Lahore Lions are the unluckiest team in Baseball United, having been in the most United Series appearances without a win. Inspired by the defunct Lahore Lions cricket team, the Lions have a penchant for giving out the first United Series titles to many teams such as Doha, Manama, Riyadh and Jeddah. Lahore finally won in 2035 in one of the closest baseball matches ever against the Dubai Wolves

The Karachi Monarchs are one of the original 4 teams of Baseball United. Named after the Kansas City Monarchs, Karachi are the first South Asian team to win Baseball United in 2026.

Forgot to mention that the identity was inspired by the defunct Shochiku Robins and the alternate logo takes after the Baltimore Orioles and Yakult Swallows.

A beloved part of Bangladesh's sports culture in 2050, Dhaka Robins are the most successful team in the Subcontinent League with the most United Series appearances out of all teams. Named after the national bird (Oriental Magpie-Robin), the Robins regularly compete with the Pakistani and Indian teams and were Champions in 2033 and 2045.

For the First Team of the Subcontinent League, We head to Sri Lanka. An expansion team in the 2030s with Dhaka, Cairo Kuwait and other teams, the Colombo Maroons have been the weakest team in the subcontinent. Colombo managed to put together a cinderella run, beating Lahore, Mumbai and Riyadh to win the United Series in 2043.

Logo 1: ICC T20 World Cup West Indies and USA 2024

I did always think this would be the first logo I'd make but this happened way sooner than I thought.

Context:

T20 is the shortest format of cricket with 20 over innings. There are 6 times to bowl (crickets equivalent to a pitch) in an over and each team has 1 inning each. After each over, bowlers change. The batting team has 10 wickets (strike outs essentially except there is no strikes preceding it). Cricket has 2 more formats but I'll get into that when its time for those World Cup logos.

2 days ago , The International Cricket Council (ICC) announced a new brand identity for the T20 World Cup.

The design turns the word T20 into a bat and simultaneously the seam of the cricket ball while the zig-zags are meant to symbolise excitement whilst also forming the ball shape. The interesting thing to me is the fact the logo is to be modified for each tournament. Those aren't currently released but the 2024 Men's edition is supposed to have Stripes for the U.S. and a Palm tree pattern for the West Indies. 

So I made my version of that idea:

For this logo:

• I've changed the tournament name from T20 World Cup back to World Twenty20 as fans didn't like the name change.
• Stripes for the USA.
• Divided the stripes section into 3 to symbolise the 3 venues the U.S. will contribute (Florida, New York, Texas).
• 9 stripes as this is the 9th edition of the tournament.
• Palm Tree for the West Indies
• 4 leaves on the palm tree represent the 4 venues the West Indies will contribute (Barbados, St. Lucia, St. Vincent, Trinidad and Tobago).
• Carried over the T20 bat from the main brand identity.
• Maroon for the West Indies, Red for the USA and a shade of blue that is between the shades used on the US flag and the West Indies Flag.
• A more Circular shape to show off the ball shape more

Since I am neither American nor Caribbean, let me know what you think.

This topic gonna be dedicated to making Cricket logos, mainly ICC Tournament logos, although there will be the odd t20 franchise team here and there. This might be the first cricket-related post on the Concept forums (unless someone deleted something.)

Current status of each new club:
Existing Clubs- Salgaocar, Sreenidi Deccan

New Clubs- Tripura Athletic, Viva Vizag

Rebranded Clubs- None

Finally finished PL3. It was shorter than expected but with exams coming up, I needed to do it. Looking back on some of the revived clubs has made me emotional about how many historic clubs may have been lost to time. And I do hope many get revived at some point in the future.  Well now it's 48 teams and 144 kits done, 36 teams and 108 kits left. I'll see y'all here after a while

Current status of each new club:
Existing Clubs- NorthEast United, FC Pune City

New Clubs- Phenomeno Patna, Prayagraj Jets

Rebranded Clubs- Pune FC

4 teams in one post now. Patna is regrettable but in the end was ok. I'm fine with the rest existing tbh. I used the Rihla design ball for the Jets because I think clubs having a ball in the logo should at least have the template of the contemporary ball. I might be able to end PL3 today or tomorrow, which means a long break afterwards and a return to Basketball and Baseball concepts.

I finished making all the PL3 kits now just some of the history sections needs to be made , which is harder than expected so I honestly have more respect for @PascalHugo when he makes it for his teams.

In the mean time here's the next team.

I forgot to do this so here's the current status of each new club:
Existing Clubs- Churchill Bros., Corbett FC, Delhi FC, FC Madras

New Clubs- Delhi Nationals, Jatayu Kollam

Rebranded Clubs- None so far

I have a soft spot for this club cuz my mom is from the district. I wanted to expand more on the founding part but I think I'll save it for the twitter account.

Here is the team I promised for yesterday.

I'm back, tried to complete 2 today but for now Delhi is all we get

Forgot to mention the Cap insignia and City wordmark are inspired by the Saudi Olympic Committee, like Kuwait

The last team of the Arabian League, the Riyadh Knights joined the league in 2024 along with Jeddah. The financial might of these two ensured that the Arabian League is always dominated by Saudi teams, culminating in Riyadh's 2030 United Series win. Riyadh is the most dominant team in the league and is associated with Al Nassr, hence the alternate color scheme.

The third team of the Arabian League (I screwed up the alphabetical order), the Jeddah Giants joined the league in 2024 along with Riyadh. The financial might of these two ensured that the Arabian League is always dominated by Saudi teams, culminating in their 2031 United Series win. With the 2040s debacle however, the Giants have started to falter and give way to Cairo and Kuwait.

10th one, North division, Gurgaon is another one I regret, and I made the logo around the time Chainsaw Man was airing.

Gurgaon shares a rivalry with Haryana and is one of two sports team in the city (the other being Ice Hockey).  Of the Northern belt teams, Gurgaon is one of the smallest markets.

No.9, Southern Division, I have alot of regrets about the decisions I took with this one.

The Glorioso are formed from the Goa Wave in the old EPBL. They are owned by the same club as Vasco SC in the Pro Liga India (I don't think I've shown them off there yet) hence the alt jersey.

Team 8, Delhi Nationals, having won the 2029 IPB title and being the club of the capital city, are amongst the popular clubs in the league. Due to their similar colours and success,  Delhi and Kanpur have a strong rivalry. Like Bengal, they own a football club although they are more successful in that endeavour.
