Dubai: The DP World International League T20 Season 4 is set to kick off on 2nd December 2025, coinciding with Eid Al Etihad. The six-team competition will feature 34 matches, culminating in the final scheduled for 4th January 2026.
According to Emirates News Agency, CEO of DP World ILT20, David White, emphasized the careful planning that went into selecting the tournament window. He stated, "Following extensive discussions with all our stakeholders, we believe the 2nd December 2025 to 4th January 2026 tournament window is ideal for the DP World International League T20 Season 4."
White highlighted the importance of scheduling the tournament before the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, which begins in early February. This timing allows players involved in both events to adequately prepare for their national duties. Additionally, the December-January timeframe is seen as advantageous for teams seeking to attract a larger pool of players.
The previous season of DP World ILT20 showcased top T20 talent, including Nicholas Pooran, Sam Curran, Shai Hope, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, and David Warner.
