Gulf Giants’ Chris Jordan emerged as the Player of the Tournament, showcasing a notable bowling performance with the most wickets (20). Alex Hales from Desert Vipers secured the Most Runs title, amassing a total of 469 runs during the tournament.

Following the injury of MI Cape Town captain Rashid Khan in SA20, Kieron Pollard, who was MI Emirates retained for the 2024 ILT20, was designated as his replacement. Due to scheduling conflicts with SA20, Nicholas Pooran has been appointed as the captain for MI. Pollard is expected to join the unit during the final stages of the ILT20 in the UAE.

Colin Munro is set to retain his captaincy for Desert Vipers, while Gulf Giants will be led by James for the upcoming season as well. David Warner, who will make his ILT20 debut, and Tom Kohler-Cadmore will take on captaincy roles for Dubai Capitals and Sharjah Warriors, respectively. Sunil Narine will be at the helm of the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders.

The upcoming T20 league is set to adopt a double round-robin format along with playoffs, featuring a total of 34 matches, including Qualifier 1, Eliminator, Qualifier 2, and the final. Dubai International Cricket Stadium will host the final on February 17.
