The Champions League T20 will return after more than 10 years.

The Champions League T20 (CLT20) is about to make a reappearance. It will be even better and bigger this time. The International Cricket Council's (ICC) members recently met in Singapore as part of the ICC Annual Conference. Formally decided to bring back the competition with teams from various domestic Twenty20 leagues. Assuming all proceeds as planned. The league might resume as early as the next year.

Cricbuzz understands that the international boards will meet soon to hash out the mechanics of the league. Particularly in view of the fact that many franchise owners have teams across many nations. Addressing this cross-team ownership structure will be a significant challenge for the authorities. Who are expected to set up a Governing Council (GC) or a Board to regulate the league.

Creating the league's size and scope will be another significant obstacle for the regulators to overcome. In 2015, the Champions League T20 was discontinued, leaving. Just a few big Test-playing countries with franchise-based leagues. The T20 scene has changed significantly in the past ten years.

With leagues springing up all over the cricketing ecosystem and even Associate nations like the USA and UAE hosting their own competitions. This technique has also been adopted by countries such as Canada and Nepal. Approximately eleven major franchise leagues, including The Hundred in England. Exist worldwide as of the most recent count.

Apart from deciding how clubs from different leagues will be distributed. The organizers will also need to locate a window in a busy calendar. Like in the previous edition, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). Its famous Indian Premier League (IPL) are likely to lead the planned leadership.

It is also expected that Cricket Australia (CA) and the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB). Which did not play in the previous league, will be active members. It's unknown who else will be engaged. The framework could possibly include Cricket South Africa (CSA), one of CL T20's three creators.

Launched in 2009, the CL T20 was shut down during the 2014 season. When broadcaster Star Sports proposed to dissolve the league. Which was agreed by the league's original three members: the BCCI, CA, and CSA. In 2015, following major financial problems. Star offered a compensation proposal that was approved by all three boards.

Everything will therefore start where it finished. Before achieving anything else, the new members will need to submit a tender to bring on a broadcaster.
