Abu Dhabi [UAE]14th October (ANI): New York Strikers, one of the new teams to join Abu Dhabi’s T10 squad, have announced their sixth season roster.
2019 World Cup winning captain Eoin Morgan is part of the team. 2016 T20 World Cup-winning captain Keelon Pollard is also part of the team, along with West Indies’ Ravi Rambauer and Pakistan’s Wahab Riaz, according to a release from the New York Strikers.
The Strikers are one of two new teams from the U.S. who not only opted for an explosive team, but also decided to paint the incomparable tiger as their mascot and named it Namir.
The New York Strikers, who have appointed legend Yuvraj Singh as their mentor, are keen to spread the message of diversity through cricket, which is also picking up pace in the US.
Speaking at the meeting, New York Strikers boss Sagar Khanna said: “I hope New York Strikers can produce some sparkling cricket in their sixth season at T10 in Abu Dhabi. We have a very strong ball. Team, they are eager to go, full of power and intrigue, just like India’s national animal tiger. We hope to see a tiger-like approach in the Abu Dhabi game, if this roar is combined with a message of unity, nothing I’m happier than that, it’s a must in team sports.”
The new season of Abu Dhabi T10 kicks off on November 23 with the finals on December 4. International cricket stars will play in a short but thrilling 10-over format during the two-week competition.
New York Forwards: Kieron Pollard, Eoyn Morgan, Azam Khan, Paul Sterling, Romario Sheppard, Andre Fletcher, Wahab Ria Zee, Jordan Thompson, Kesrick Williams, Izaruhak Navid, Tom Hartley, Mohammad Wasim, Naf Pabrega, Mohammad Farouk, Akyr Hussain and Ravi Rampaul. (ANI)
