“We are trying to get the best here. Zaheer Khan has already signed up along with 6-7 Indian players who played last year like Munaf Patel, Praveen Kumar, and Pravin Tambe. Yuvraj Singh is almost there. We hope to make the announcement in two-three days. We are in the final stage on negotiations with him,” Mulk said.

This 2019 edition of T10 League from November 15 to 24 will be their third season and the chairman is certainly confident that, it will catch everyone's attention in a better way than T20 cricket and in due course, it will become the top sporting event in this country.

“Any T20 tournament you are looking at minimum 20-30 days in the FTP. So a 10-day tournament is an affordable window. Next year we intend to play for 15 days,” chairman Mulk added.
