Dubai. Gulf Giants etched their name in history by becoming DP World International League T20 champions for the first time. Giants defeated Desert Vipers by seven wickets in the final at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday. The grand finale was attended by former England captain Mike Gatting and former Australian cricketer and coach Justin Langer. Gatting, chairman of the MCC World Cricket Committee, reflected on the high performance of cricket in the ILT20.

Cricket is always good in Dubai. I have been to Dubai International Stadium once or twice and the stadium always keeps on improving. The ground was looking good during the final. UAE has always produced some really good players. I am not surprised that DP World ILT20 has done well. Very high excitement matches were played in UAE.

Gatting also said that multiple franchise T20 tournaments have been great for cricket fans. There are some great T20 players around the world. It is interesting to see that the popularity of tournaments is increasing all over the world. This is great for cricket lover. It’s great to see families and kids at the T20 tournament.
Speaking about ILT20, Langer said, I have played all formats of cricket. I was a player, then I became a coach, and now I am a broadcaster. I am also working with the MCC World Cricket Committee. I have seen everything in cricket from different angles. In these tournaments, players get an opportunity to showcase their skills and talents.
