Chirag Suri, UAE national team player playing in team ECB Blues told Khaleej Times. “The T10 is the best option right now, looking at the weather. But obviously I think it’s a very popular format and us guys can go out there and express ourselves. I think in terms of just having cricket around, that’s the best thing right now. Just really happy to be back on the field,”
