Sri Lanka Cricket to host men's T-10 competition in December

After months and years of fostering ambitions of hosting a T-10 event, Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) have finally made a breakthrough in that aspect. December 12, 2024, will see the first T-10 competition being held by Sri Lanka, according to a board release.

The draft is scheduled to take place on November 10. Six franchises are expected to take part in the groundbreaking competition. It will be intriguing to see how the competition plays out in addition to Sri Lanka’s top T20 competition, the Lanka Premier League, which has had five instalments of it being played already. It is also expected that overseas players are expected to feature.

President of Sri Lanka Cricket, Shammi Silva, was quite optimistic in his remarks on the T-10 event, as well as highlighted the various benefits it would bring to the cricketing system of Sri Lanka.

“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 color to the Sri Lankan cricketing calendar and bring in a new experience to our players and fans, alike,” stated Silva in the press release, as quoted by ESPNcricinfo.
