All franchises have finalized their player retentions and new signings ahead of the crucial Players Draft, where teams will face off to secure their lineups on October 17 at 6 pm UAE time.
More than 400 players from all cricketing nations around the world have registered for the Player Draft. This season’s excitement is further amplified by a groundbreaking three-year broadcast deal with Disney Star, ensuring extensive coverage in both English and regional languages across India.
As the tournament's global fanbase continues to grow, teams will battle it out in a thrilling 12-day competition from November 21 to December 2, culminating with the final match on UAE's 53rd National Day at the iconic Zayed Cricket Stadium until 2028.
