When the T10 organizers announced the T10 league, many cricket fanatics were in distrust about the game format. However, the first edition reaped great support from both the fans and cricketers.

T10 league is the annual league held in the United Arab Emirates with eight teams battling out. T10 league which is owned by the T10 sports management is the only ICC approved ten overs league across the world. Many superstars like Pollard, Bravo, Morgan, and Rashid Khan are part of this year's T10 league which is set to commence on November 23.

ICC sanctioned its permission to the T10 league recently and would like to bring it to the international circuit. Many cricket fanatics would love to see their favorite players part of the T10 Internationals. This form will help the batsman adapt the game in a shorter time as they are only ten overs per innings. Bowlers will have to come up with newer balls besides the balls they developed in the T20's. Let us look at the best Indian XI for T10.
