T10 League Season 2: Players and teams revealed

The second edition of the world’s only T10 League is set to get underway, and once again some of the biggest superstars in cricket have been roped in. The competition begins in November, for which the draft picks were completed last night in the UAE. The previous edition – which was also the inaugural edition – of the tournament was a huge success, with Kerala Kings emerging as winners. This edition of the T10 league will see three new teams, while Team Sri Lanka will no longer be in the mix of things. This brings the total number of teams up to 8 as opposed to 6 from last year. The three new teams are Karachians, Rajputs, and Northern Warriors. The tournament will last 10 days, with the Sharjah Cricket Stadium hosting all the matches. Chris Gayle goes to Kerala Kings Monday’s draft followed a mini-draft in July, where teams retained their best players. Chris Gayle was the first player to be picked by defending champions Kerala Kings. The tournament has also been recognized by the ICC as the world’s first 10-over league. “The T10 Cricket League is gaining ground with the formal recognition of the International Cricket Council and the interest shown by the stakeholders that encouraged us to add two new teams to the league,” Nawab Shaji Ul Mulk, chairman of the T10 Cricket League and T10 Sports Management, said. “The team draw is a testimony to the growing popularity of not only the T10 Cricket League but also the game of cricket, which can now be played in less than two hours. “This year’s T10 Cricket League will help expand and popularise the game of cricket further. We see this as a growing movement and I urge all to join this and help take the game further,” he added. Here is the list of players that were picked last night: Chris Gayle – Kerala Kings Ben Cutting – Karachians Morne Morkel – Bengal Tigers Lasith Malinga – Maratha Arabians Colin Munro – Pakhtoons Tymal Mills – Rajputs Mohammed Sami – Punjabi Legends Ravi Bopara – Northern Warriors Rovman Powell – Northern Warriors Carlos Brathwaite – Rajputs Zahir Khan – Punjabi Legends Andre Fletcher – Pakhtoon Amir Yamin – Bengal Tigers James Vince – Maratha Arabians Muhammad Nawaz – Karachians Junaid Khan – Kerala Kings Umar Akmal – Punjabi Legends Liam Livingston – Maratha Arabians Harry Gurney – Northern Warriors Mohammed Nabi – Bengal Tigers Dawid Malan – Karachians Sandeep Lamicchane – Kerala Kings Sohail Khan – Pakhtoon Rahat Ali – Rajputs Sharifuddin Ashraf – Pakhtoon Mitchell McClenaghan – Punjabi Legends Fawad Ahmed – Karachians Samit Patel – Rajputs Tom Curran – Kerala Kings Chris Green – Northern Warriors Brendan Taylor – Maratha Arabians Kusal Perera – Bengal Tigers Qais Ahmed – Rajputs Sherfane Rutherford – Bengal Tigers Chadwick Walton – Pakhtoon Fabien Allen – Kerala Kings Tom Moores – Punjabi Legends Adam Lyth – Maratha Arabians Obed McCoy – Northern Warriors Isuru Udana – Karachians Roelef van der Merwe – Maratha Arabians Lendl Simmons – Northern Warriors Niroshan Dickwella – Kerala Kings Joe Clarke – Karachians Ben Dunk – Rajputs Shapoor Zadran – Pakhtoon Kevon Cooper – Bengal Tigers Anwar Ali – Punjabi Legends Imran Nazir – Kerala Kings Samiullah Shenwari – Karachians Kharry Pierre – Northern Warriors Najibullah Zadran – Maratha Arabians Rayad Emrit – Bengal Tigers Shan Masood – Rajputs Gulbadin Naib – Pakhtoon Jade Dernbach – Punjabi Legends Ali Khan – Bengal Tigers Cameron Delport – Pakhtoon Peter Trego – Rajputs Kennar Lewis – Northern Warriors Hassan Khan – Punjabi Legends Muhammed Irfan Jnr. – Karachians Benny Howell – Kerala Kings Richard Gleeson – Maratha Arabians Here are the full squads: Kerala Kings Eoin Morgan (Icon Player, Captain), Sohail Tanvir, Kieron Pollard, Paul Stirling, Dasun Shanaka, Chris Gayle, Junaid Khan, Sandeep Lamichhane, Tom Curran, Fabian Allen, Niroshan Dickwella, Imran Nazir, Benny Howell Maratha Arabians Rashid Khan (Icon Player), Kamran Akmal, Alex Hales, Dwayne Bravo, James Faulkner, Lasith Malinga, Liam Livingstone, James Vince, Brendan Taylor, Adam Lyth, Roelof van der Merwe, Najibullah Zadran, Richard Gleeson Pakhtoons Shahid Afridi (Icon Player, Captain), Mohammad Irfan, Liam Dawson, Colin Ingram, David Willey, Colin Munro, Andre Fletcher, Sohail Khan, Sharafuddin Ashraf, Chadwick Walton, Shapoor Zadran, Gulbadin Naib, Cameron Delport Punjabi Legends Shoaib Malik (Icon Player, Captain), Chris Jordan, Luke Ronchi, Liam Plunkett, Evin Lewis, Mohammad Sami, Zahir Khan, Umar Akmal, Mitchell McClenaghan, Tom Moores, Anwar Ali, Jade Dernbach, Hasan Khan Karachians Shane Watson (Icon Player), Anton Devcich, Ben Laughlin, Jofra Archer, Colin de Grandhomme, Ben Cutting, Mohammad Nawaz, Dawid Malan, Fawad Ahmed, Isuru Udana, Joe Clarke, Samiullah Shenwari, Mohammad Irfan Bengal Tigers Sunil Narine (Icon Player), Jason Roy, Asif Ali, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Sam Billings, Morne Morkel, Aamer Yamin, Mohammad Nabi, Kusal Perera, Sherfane Rutherford, Kevon Cooper, Rayad Emrit, Ali Khan Northern Warriors Darren Sammy (Icon Player), Wahab Riaz, Nicolas Pooran, Andre Russell, Dwayne Smith, Ravi Bopara, Rovman Powell, Harry Gurney, Chris Green, Obed McCoy, Lendl Simmons, Khary Pierre, Kennar Lewis Rajputs Brendon McCullum (Icon Player), Chris Lynn, Rilee Rossouw, Mohammad Shahzad, Mohammad Hafeez, Tymal Mills, Carlos Brathwaite, Rahat Ali, Samit Patel, Qais Ahmad, Ben Dunk, Shan Masood, Peter Trego For all the latest cricket news and other updates follow CricTracker.
