Legendary Cricketers as Captains
Gautam Gambhir, Shahid Afridi, and Aaron Finch were named leaders of their respective clubs for the third instalment of the tournament. These renowned cricketers have guided their teams gracefully and provided a professional edge to the competition. Several cricketing superstars, like Brett Lee, Shoaib Akhtar, Irfan Pathan, Tillakaratne Dilshan, Chris Gayle, S. Sreesanth, and others, will compete in the league to revive historic cricketing clashes from history.
Tactical Scope of the Impact Player Rule
Teams would list four replacements in their squad sheet at the toss, in addition to the starting Eleven, and utilize one of the four throughout the match. The player can substitute any player of the starting Eleven at any time before the completion of the 14th over of both innings and bat and bowl his whole allocation of overs. The Impact Player rule has a broad tactical reach, with no actual limitations on the role he can perform.
For example, the Impact Player can substitute a batsman who was previously removed and still bat if the team only employs 11 batters, or he can substitute a bowler who’s already bowled a few overs and still bowl his entire four-over capacity.
