The IPL added two new teams – Pune Warriors India and Kochi Tuskers Kerala – to their roster in 2011. Chennai Super Kings won their second title.
Several giants of the format – Lasith Malinga, Dwayne Bravo, Andre Russell – will feature in the series.
India and Sri Lanka start off their new decade with a T20I series, to be played at Guwahati, Indore, and Pune.
Our round-up includes an ICC initiative, visa refusals for Turkish cricketers, Malinga's four in four, a six by Mahmudullah, and a quote by Lynn.
Sri Lanka have not lost a single bilateral T20I series on Australian soil till date.
The format and the venue change, but Pakistan hope to keep the results the same.
Abdul Qadir passed away; Malinga reached 100 T20I wickets and took four wickets in four balls; and Rashid and Hazlewood dominated the day at Chattogram and Old Trafford respectively.
New Zealand have an unassailable 2-0 lead, meaning both Sri Lanka and the Black Caps will have an eye on the T20 World Cup next year.
There is a return for St Lucia Zouks, some changes in the teams, and lot of quality – this year’s tournament could be a cracker.
New Zealand are probably favourites, but they still have the Malinga factor to reckon with.
