When will UAE T20 League start & other details? As per the initial planning, the league was to take place in January-February. 

But amid third Covid wave, the league organizers had to again postpone thier plans to launch the much hyped project.

Accoridng to the sources, currently, the ECB is exploring a window right after the IPL 2022 for the 1st season of UAE T20 League. 

The window in June-July is likely to be finalized but the questions remain over the availability of the players. This being a year where Asia Cup is slotted in September & T20 World Cup in Australia in October & November, their is no other window available for the league.

Even if the league is held in June & July window, the question mark over the participation over the players will always remain. Since there are not many local UAE players of repute, the league will largely depend on the overseas players. It is likely many internationals could be busy with FTP commitments in the summer.
