LAHORE: The T-10 Cricket League will commence on Tuesday in Sharjah.
The 10-over cricket league, is a franchise-based tournament. It features many former and current cricket stars like Virender Sehwag, Shahid Afridi, Fakhar Zaman, Eoin Morgan, Liam Plunkett, Dinesh Chandimal and Sarfraz Ahmed.
Format:
There will be a round-robin league stage in which the participating teams, divided into two groups, will play matches with each other twice. This will be followed by a knockout stage in which the top three teams of each group will face each other, followed by the semi-finals and the final.
Teams:
The teams included Maratha Arabians, Pakhtoons, Bengal Tigers, Kerala Kings, Punjabi Legends and Colombo Lions and the initial draft was held on a yacht Dubai Marina in November.
The organisers of the league aim to pare down cricket, even further than T20 already has, fitting it into a 90-minute time-frame similar to other major sports like football.
