The world of cricket is about to witness another electrifying chapter as the Abu Dhabi T10 Season 9 gears up for action. Scheduled from 18 to 30 November 2025, this edition will be held at the iconic Zayed Cricket Stadium in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.With its trademark 10-overs-per-side format, the league continues to deliver high-octane thrills and has carved a niche as one of the most explosive competitions in world cricket.

What to Expect in Season 9

The ninth installment of the league is already shaping up to be a spectacular event. Across the 12-day window between 18 and 30 November 2025, fans can expect back-to-back edge-of-seat contests, power-hitting carnivals, and clutch finishes. This edition sees eight franchises locked in for battle, each having assembled squads packed with international stars and exciting young talent.

Spotlight on the Northern Warriors Franchise 

Over previous seasons, certain teams have distinguished themselves. One standout is the Northern Warriors. They have already claimed the tournament title twice (in 2018 and 2021) and thus rank as one of the most successful sides in this league’s history. This blend of experience and flair makes them a perennial threat.
