The start of the Abu Dhabi T10 League is just a day away and the excitement among the fans has reached its peak. The tournament gets underway tomorrow, November 19 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. The event was first played in 2017 and became an instant blockbuster owing to its crisp format. Given the busy schedule, people often don't have enough time to watch a full cricket game, which takes a minimum of 4 hours of sitting. The T10 format provides the same thrill at a much lesser time. An average T10 game finishes in just 1.5 hours.
