Champions League T20 cricket is returning to India and Hyderabad will be hosting the qualification matches for the third edition of the prestigious global event. Though cricket fans of Hyderabad will be limited to see only Kolkata Knight Riders in action during the qualifiers, let’s hope an Indian Team bags the title for the second consecutive year after Chennai Super Kings won it during the last edition. The event is player from September 19th to October 9th across four Indian cities – Hyderabad, Bangalore, Chennai and Kolkata.
The 2011 edition will see 10 team (including 3 qualifiers – yet to be decided) in action. The teams that qualified for the tournament based on their superlative performance in their domestic T20 tournaments are – Chennai Super Kings, Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bangalore (all India); Cape Cobras, Chevrolet Warriors (both South Africa); New South Whales Blues, South Australian Redbacks (both Australia). The teams that would play in the qualification stage to bag one of the three slots available are Kolkata Knight Riders (India); Trinidad & Tobago (West Indies); Auckland Aces (New Zealand); Ruhunu Eleven (Sri Lanka)l Somerset and Leicestershire (both England).
