The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) have revealed details of the proposed new T20 tournament, stated to begin in 2020, to its 41 members today (March 27).

Key elements of the proposed new T20 competition include:

Eight new teams playing 36 games over a 38-day summer window with four home games per team

All games televised with significant free to air exposure

No scheduling overlap with the NatWest T20 Blast

IPL style play-off system to give more incentive for finishing higher up the league table

A players' draft to drive excitement and awareness

Squads of 15, with three being overseas players

Venue selection to be based on potential venues' ability to best deliver the strategic objectives of the new competition

Event presentation to be centrally directed and differentiated from other formats of cricket

Each FCC to receive a guaranteed minimum of 1.3 million pounds, or 1/19 of net revenues [whichever sum is higher]

10% of net revenues to go to a centrally delivered participation programme linked to the new competition
