Abu Dhabi T10 League is scheduled to start today at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium. There are eight teams in this year’s tournament. The names of those eight teams are Morrisville Samp Army, New York Strikers, Team Abu Dhabi, The Chennai Braves, Delhi Bulls, Northern Warriors, Bangla Tigers and Deccan Gladiators.
There are players from different countries in this tournament. Even a few Indian cricketers will be in action. Interestingly, three Indian cricketers are present in the same squads as the Pakistan players. Earlier this year, fans saw how Mohammad Rizwan and Cheteshwar Pujara played together in the County Championship, and now, the following three Indian cricketers will share the dressing room with Pakistan stars in Abu Dhabi T10.
1. Stuart Binny will play for New York Strikers in Abu Dhabi T10
Stuart Binny is one of the Indian players in this year’s T10 League season. He will play for the brand new New York Strikers team. Along with him, the squad also features former West Indies all-rounder Kieron Pollard, who is the captain of the team. Former Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh is the team’s mentor.
There are two Pakistani cricketers present in the New York Strikers team. Their names are wicket-keeper Azam Khan and fast bowler Wahab Riaz.
2. Abhimanyu Mithun
Former Indian fast bowler Abhimanyu Mithun will represent the Northern Warriors in Abu Dhabi’s competition. Mithun will likely share the new ball with Pakistan’s fast bowler Mohammad Irfan. Mohammad is remembered for his tall height, and how he would trouble the opposition batters with his pace.
3. Harbhajan Singh will play for Delhi Bulls in Abu Dhabi T10
Delhi Bulls are another franchise with both Indian and Pakistani cricketers present in the squad. The Indian star is off-spinner Harbhajan Singh, while the players from Pakistan are Khushdil Shah and Imad Wasim.
