#2 Caribbean Premier League (West Indies)
The latest to join the T20 bandwagon is the Caribbean Premier League, and within 3 years it has become what many believe to be "the biggest party in sports".
And then there are obvious reasons behind the success. The biggest one is the involvement of West Indian players, the most loved bunch of cricketers all over the globe. This and the fact that they are the current World T20 champions has added to the charm of cricket.

So much passion for the game, so much interest, tremendous attitude, all accompanied with music, rhythmic beats and smiling faces. The factors that are making CPL one of the hottest properties in the game.
And the interest is on the rise, with the likes of Shah Rukh Khan and Vijay Mallya buying stakes in the different teams is an indication of the growing popularity of the league.
