Cricket Victoria’s squadwill join a competitive lineup of teams in the GSL from an array of international competitions, including the Guyana Amazon Warriors (Carribbean Premier League), Lahore Qalandars (Pakistan Super League), Hampshire CCC (England County Cricket), and Rangpur Riders (Bangladesh Premier League).

“We are delighted to participate in this exciting new competition in the Caribbean,” said Cricket Victoria CEO Nick Cummins. “The GSL presents a fantastic opportunity for players across our network to get valuable match time against high quality opposition.”

The tournament continues to build on  Cricket Victoria’s global footprint, including the  existing partnership with the San Francisco Unicorns. Up to six players from the Unicorns, who were runners-up in MLC02, will join the Victorian squad.

Cricket Victoria’s squad will comprise a blend of BBL-contracted players, emerging Victorian talent, and players from the San Francisco Unicorns. The team will be captained by San Francisco Unicorns captain Corey Anderson and will feature a lineup expected to include Netherlands captain Scott Edwards, Renegades batter Jon Wells, and England and Melbourne Stars player Joe Clarke.

The team will be coached by BBL|13 championship coach (Brisbane Heat) and current T20 Performance Manager for the Melbourne Renegades, Wade Seccombe.

Cricket Victoria’s first match will be against the Guyana Amazon Warriors on Friday, 29 November at Guyana National Stadium in Providence.
