Afghanistan superstars Rashid Khan and Mohammad Nabi were two of the most high-profile players signed during the Caribbean Premier League 2020 (CPL 2020) player draft, while IPL spinner Pravin Tambe became the first Indian player to be picked for a stint in the CPL.

Barbados Tridents' signing of Alex Hales from the CPL 2020 player draft was also one of the biggest talking points for the expert panel consisting of Daren Ganga and Samuel Badree.

Franchise-league cricket is set to return to the Caribbean islands with CPL 2020 slated to begin on August 19th in Trinidad and Tobago. With the coronavirus pandemic sweeping through the world, the CPL 2020 will be hosted only by the three-time champions.

On that note, here's the full list of the new players signed and drafted by the six franchises from the CPL 2020 draft.
