UAE to Host 2nd T10 League next month

Sharjah: The second edition of the T10 cricket league will be held at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium here from November 21 to December 2. The first edition was a four-day event played during December 2017 but this year's event will have an expanded schedule.

This year in August, the International Cricket Council (ICC) officially sanctioned the league along with the Emirates Cricket Board.

The league will have eight teams compared to six last year -- Kerala Kings, Punjab Legends, Maratha Arabians, Bengal Tigers, The Karachians, Rajputs, Northern Warriors and Pakhtoons.

Former stars Virendra Sehwag, Brendon Mccullum, Shahid Afridi, Shane Watson, Shahid Afridi, Eoin Morgan, Rashid Khan, Shoaib Malik, Sunil Narine, Darren Sammy and Brendon McCullum will be some of the prominent players in the tournament.

"The first edition of the T10 League in 2017 was an exciting experience of launching a completely new concept of 90 minutes cricket," T10 League chairman Nawab Shaji Ul Mulk said in a statement. IANS
