The inaugural season of the T20 competition will run between July 13-30 of this year, and follows on from Minor League cricket which will also continue this year. There will be a player draft on March 19 in which players will be picked from the MLC Domestic Player Combine, currently ongoing. The competition itself will run from July 13-30.

Six teams will take part in the tournament, each based in a major city in the USA – Dallas, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Washington D.C., Seattle and New York City. The opening match will be played at Grand Prairie Stadium in  Texas. Team names and other venues have yet to be announced.

In addition, the Minor League will stage its third season this year with all games taking place on grass or H3 Hybrid wickets for the first time. Last season’s Minor League T20 tournament was won by the Seattle Thunderbolts.

The USA is gearing up to co-host the 2024 T20 World Cup with the West Indies.
