More details from the official launch:

• yet more costs revealed: $1M in prize money

• now possibly 16 players/team including 4 Canadians (one Canadian U23 player)

Some good points raised : http://www.canadacricket.com/?p=11444 As for the choice team names and associations to cities, the move certainly brings into question Mercuri's background in business of sports. The only way it makes sense is if the tournament is being marketed to a foreign audience. What ...

Where did you get the information on the salaries? Is any Canuck cricketer out there worth $90K Link to the registration page: http://www.gt20.ca/registration/ See the "Reserve Price" dropdown box. I'm not really familiar with how this works - just my best guess. Clearly the $90K would be for the S...

If it is to start at the end of June, the full details will have to come out soon to allow sufficient time for publicity and sales....

^ Most likely a case of both: -Numbers have been exaggerated (seems to have been done in several associate countries over the years). -Many (most?) North American cricketers only care about their weekend leagues or their country of birth and not at all for a national governing body So plenty of work...

Looking at the 2018 TDCA schedule there doesn't seem to be a discernible break in July in the Super 9 schedule for players to participate in the Global T20 Canada tournament.
