Pakistani players Haris Rauf, Fakhar Zaman and Usama Mir have gotten the NOC's to participate in the competition, making the tournament even more exciting.

After ceding to the pressure from broadcasters, the organizers have decided to shorten the length of the competition. Only 44 games will be played during this edition. Each team will play 10 matches in the league stages before heading on for the Playoffs.

There will be a window of rest between December 14-18, in order to avoid going head to head with the Pakistan's Tour of Australia.
