DUBAI: After the successful season one of T10 league, organizers have decided to increase team from six to eight and now in the second season of the league eight teams would contest. Mohsin Imran has bought a team named Karachians.

According to details, the T10 League, which made its debut late last year, is already set for an expansion, with two new teams to be added to the tournament’s second season. Karachians, from Pakistan, and Northern Warriors, based out of India, will join the six other teams to make it a ten-day competition: up from four days in the first season.

The tournament’s new format means an extension of an already busy cricket season for the UAE, starting with the 50-over Asia Cup in September. Pakistan will then host Australia and New Zealand over the winter for two series of Tests, ODIs and T20s.

UAE is also set to host the inaugural season of the Afghan Premier League that will run in October, alongside Pakistan’s international fixture list. There is also a possibility that if the IPL moves out of India next year as it has done in the past for general elections, the UAE could be in the running as a host – the country hosted part of the IPL in 2014.

Shaji Ul Mulk, the chairman of the T10 League, is confident that his tournament will more than match the others in terms of popularity. “We see no competitors, really,” Ul Mulk said. “T10 was the only tournament that had all packed stadiums [last winter].”

Ul Mulk said that other countries had shown interest in the format initially, most notably England and West Indies. Since then, however, the ECB has announced plans to introduce yet another format – a 100-balls-a-side game, which will follow a city-based model. Ul Mulk said discussions remained active with several Full Member boards.

“Our vision is to see T10 become an integral part of domestic and international cricket all over the world. We are discussing with various full member country boards to take T10 to all these countries.

“On a domestic front, Ajman Cricket Council has just concluded two T10 tournaments, and feedback from the teams is very encouraging.”

Salman Iqbal, the league’s president, was looking at taking the format beyond traditional locations. “We faced challenges when we first launched as players were hesitant to sign on because of the last private cricket venture to be staged in UAE, the Masters Champions League,” Iqbal said. “However, in just one year, T10 has proven itself. If the interest continues to grow at this rate, we might even take cricket to the Olympics.” Agencies
