Gulf Giants has announced its squad for the maiden International League T20, which will take place in the United Arab Emirates between January and February. The first season will include six teams, including Gulf Giants, an Adani Sportsline franchise. The Giants squad includes some leading T20 names like Chris Jordan, Chris Lynn, David Wiese, Tom Banton and Shimron Hetmyer.
The ongoing edition of The Hundred reached a new milestone, after young English batter Will Smeed, representing Birmingham Phoenix, smashed the first century of the hundred-ball competition. The 20-year-old achieved the feat during the clash against Southern Brave on Wednesday at Edgbaston. Smeed thrashed the Brave bowlers to every corner of the ground and brought up the maiden ton of The Hundred tournament in just 49 deliveries. His knock helped Birmingham Phoenix to post a total of 176 and then later on, Southern Brave were bowled out for 123.
Chris Lynn will play Twenty20 cricket in the United Arab Emirates rather than his home Big Bash League (BBL) early next year, but David Warner was not included among the marquee players announced by the new International League T20 (ILT20). Media reports had strongly linked Warner with a spot in the ILT20, which clashes with the Cricket Australia-owned BBL but is bankrolled in part by Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise owners and pays better.
