The ICC Academy Grounds will host all the games of the competition. A total of 90 players were picked via the player draft. Eleven UAE players have been retained from the first season.

Out of those 11, eight players will take part in this ILT20 Development campaign. They are Aayan Afzal Khan, Junaid Siddique, Matiullah, Mohammad Waseem, Muhammad Jawadullah, Rohan Mustafa, Sanchit Sharma, Zahoor Khan.

The remaining 82 players will be aiming for 13 available spots on offer for the second season as each franchise requires at least four UAE players in their squad.
