It's the International League T20 in Sharjah/Dubai/Abu Dhabi - not exactly a tournament to get excited about.

Made 77 off 49 today.

Where has he gone after Hobart? I can't see any competitions he'd be playing in.

He's playing for Abu Dhabi Knight Riders in the ILT20 based in the UAE. Its the 2nd edition of this tournament but the 1st time its been given List A status. The only time a tournament hosted outside of a Test playing nation has been given recognised status. Each side is allowed to field 9 overseas players in their XI. There's quite a few county players in it. Meant to be one of the most lucrative T20 comps for players after the IPL, for example Dubai Capitals offered Mark Wood 400k to play in this year's edition and miss the Test series in India, this prompted the ECB to get their chequebook out.

Jake Lintott (ADKN) is in it and so is Chris Woakes (Sharjah Warriors). Dan Mousley played in it last season and I believe is scheduled to link up with MI Emirates once his finished with England Lions and prior to joining Peshawar Zalmi in the PSL. There's some pretty high profile overseas players in it as far as I can tell.

Games can be watched on Sky Channel 709 and generally start at 2.30pm midweek with 2 games a day on weekends.

Think Kai Smith is with one of the sides too.

Out for 7 today, Hasaranga done him with the googly. A beaut to be fair, had him trapped on the crease, didn't pick it at all.
