Cricket fans, buckle up because the countdown to the 2025 Abu Dhabi T10 has officially begun, and you’re about to witness cricket like never before! We’re not just bringing a tournament; we’re bringing a full-on entertainment explosion that will shake the cricket world once again.
This isn’t Test cricket, this isn’t ODI cricket, this isn’t T20 cricket. THIS IS T10, the fastest, boldest, most heart-pounding cricket format on the planet where every ball has a story, every run matters, and every second counts!
If you’re the kind of fan who wants non-stop action, fearless power-hitting, no-time-to-think decision making and edge-of-the-seat finishes — welcome home. Your favourite festival is here.
And trust us — you don’t want to miss this!
Why T10? Because life is fast, and so is our cricket!
Cricket has evolved, and T10 is the future. There’s no slow build-up, no time for settling in, no boring overs — it is pure cricket adrenaline from the very first delivery.
Just 10 overs per side
Only 90 minutes per match
Total madness from ball one
Here, dot balls feel like heartbreaks, a six looks like destiny, and every over feels like the final over of a World Cup final.
This is where heroes transform into legends, legends push their limits, underdogs become headlines, and fans lose their voices cheering.
Star power? We’ve got a galaxy!
This season, we are rolling out the red carpet for some of the most explosive, charismatic, fearless cricketers on Earth. The pre-tournament press conference looked like the Avengers of World Cricket assembling in Abu Dhabi.
Fans, get ready to roar for:
Kieron Pollard – The human tornado
Thisara Perera – Sri Lanka’s ultimate destroyer
Shakib Al Hasan – The magician with bat and ball
Faf du Plessis – Style, class, and leadership
Liam Livingstone – Boundary breakers beware
Sam Billings – Sharp brain, fast hands
Nicholas Pooran – Six-hitting superstar
Moeen Ali – Smooth, elegant, dangerous
Can you feel it already?
This line-up is not just elite — it’s explosive dynamite.
Welcome to the home of cricket entertainment!
All roads now lead to the iconic Zayed Cricket Stadium, Abu Dhabi — the global theatre where dreams, noise, and fireworks join hands. If walls could talk, this stadium would already be bragging.
This year, we are bringing:
Bigger crowds
Louder celebrations
Sharper visuals
Enhanced entertainment zones
Fan-focused surprises
A whole new festival experience
We want YOU inside that stadium feeling the drums in your chest, not watching quietly from home.
What the legends say
Players are not just ready, they are pumped.
When asked what makes T10 special, one of the superstars said:
“You can’t hide in T10 — not as a batter, not as a bowler. You must attack. The fans get their money’s worth every second.”
That’s the spirit we’re bringing.
This is not a game of patience.
This is a game of courage.
Organisers speak — the best is yet to come!
Shaji Ul Mulk, Chairman of Mulk Holdings and T10 Global Sports, couldn’t contain his pride as he declared that T10 has become one of cricket’s most gripping formats — and the 2025 edition will be the most spectacular ever.
Matt Boucher, CEO of Abu Dhabi Cricket & Sports Hub, shared the excitement of opening the gates once again to passionate fans, promising unmatched stadium energy and world-class event production.
For us as organisers, this is not just a tournament — this is a global celebration of sport, entertainment, stamina, excitement, community, and pure talent.
The Abu Dhabi T10 League 2025 is set to get underway on November 18 at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium, and what defines this format is the compression of decision-making. With only 60 legal balls to play with per inning, momentum swings are sharper, tactical margins thinner, and the role of specialists more pronounced. Teams with explosive starts and bowlers capable of executing slower-ball variations consistently gain a measurable edge. According to 1xBet's data-driven analysis, the early favourites for the 2025 season are the Deccan Gladiators, Delhi Bulls, and Northern Warriors, three squads that combine proven short-format pedigree with balanced, specialist-driven line-ups.
The Gladiators come in with powerhouses like Nicholas Pooran and Andre Russell to reinforce their standing as the most complete unit. The Delhi Bulls rely on the experience and finishing ability of Kieron Pollard up the order, together with the aggressiveness of Phil Salt at the top. The Northern Warriors boast match-defining talents like Trent Boult with the ball and Shimron Hetmyer in the middle order, lending them great stability and strong striking depth.
The data-driven assessment at 1xBet takes a deep dive into team form, strike-rate trends, economy patterns, surfaces, and weather indicators to formulate these forecasts. For this season, well-rounded squads, particularly those combining aggressive openers with adaptable seamers and wrist-spin options, look best placed to deliver consistent performances through the league phase this season.
“We are expecting tight competition between the eight franchises, but the teams that manage tempo, field efficiently, and minimize dot-ball pressure will enjoy a quantifiable edge going into the knockouts. Ultimately, the title will be determined by collective execution rather than individual brilliance, which is a hallmark of the T10 format”, notes 1xBet.
