NEW DELHI: Former India stars Harbhajan Singh, S Sreesanth and Piyush Chawla will feature in the upcoming Abu Dhabi T10, joined by West Indies stalwart Kieron Pollard and South Africa’s Faf du Plessis. The ninth edition of the fast-paced tournament is set to run from November 18 to 30 at the Zayed Cricket Stadium.

This year’s competition welcomes five new franchises — Ajman Titans, Vista Riders, Royal Champs, Aspin Stallions, and Quetta Qavalry — joining defending champions Deccan Gladiators, Delhi Bulls, and Northern Warriors to complete the eight-team roster.

All teams have finalised their squads, blending global superstars with rising talents.

Former India spinner Harbhajan Singh will represent the Aspin Stallions, bringing invaluable experience and leadership to the debutant franchise. Alongside Sam Billings, Tymal Mills, and Andre Fletcher, the Stallions boast a strong mix of batting power and bowling depth.

The Ajman Titans have added World Cup-winning leg-spinner Piyush Chawla to their ranks, while bolstering their top order with Moeen Ali, Rilee Rossouw, and Alex Hales.

The Deccan Gladiators will once again feature a star-studded line-up with Nicholas Pooran, Andre Russell, Marcus Stoinis, and David Wiese leading the charge.

Kieron Pollard and Sunil Narine will spearhead the Delhi Bulls’ campaign, supported by power-hitters Tim David, Rovman Powell, and Phil Salt.

The Northern Warriors have assembled a formidable side featuring Shimron Hetmyer, Trent Boult, Tabraiz Shamsi, and Dinesh Chandimal, while Quetta Qavalry’s line-up includes Liam Livingstone, Jason Holder, and Imran Tahir.

Royal Champs have packed their squad with proven match-winners Jason Roy, Angelo Mathews, Shakib Al Hasan, and Chris Jordan. Vista Riders, meanwhile, will rely on the experience of Sreesanth with Faf du Plessis and Matthew Wade expected to provide top-order firepower.

“From surprise selections to strategic additions, it’s clear the teams are gearing up for a thrilling edition,” said Shaji Ul Mulk, Chairman of Mulk Holdings and T10 Global Sports, in a statement.
