Shammi Silva, the president of Sri Lanka Cricket was optimistic on his remarks on the T10 event saying, “I am confident that the first-ever draft of the Lanka T-10 Super League is going to set the platform for an exciting and entertaining tournament, which will add colour to the Sri Lankan cricketing calendar and bring in a new experience to our players and fans, alike.”
The rounds of the draft will involve shortlisting an emerging player from Zimbabwe and West Indies due to the T ten Global Sports running ventures in the two nations.
An 11-day window between December 12 and 22 is slated to commence after the completion of the second test in South Africa and will kick off the White-ball series in New Zealand later in December.
