The itinerary for the Champions League Twenty20 was announced in Delhi on Thursday night amidst a star-studded inaugural Twenty20 Champions Awards. The league promises a week packed with cricketing excitement from December 3 to 10 December.
The eight participating teams have been divided into two Groups. Group A comprises of Chennai Super Kings, Victoria Bushrangers, Pretoria Titans and Middlesex Crusaders while Group B has Sialkot Stallions, Rajasthan Royals, Western Warriors and Natal Dolphins. Australia, India and South Africa have two teams each in the league and one team each from Pakistan and England is playing. England originally had two seats but Kent (who had beaten Middlesex in Twenty20 Cup final) had two ICL players and were thus denied entry. ICL is a rival to BCCI-backed IPL and gets no favor with any cricketing bodies.
