THE EUROPEAN T20 PREMIER LEAGUE has unveiled the fixtures for its inaugural season, running from August 26 to September 20, 2026, across Voorburg Cricket Club in the Netherlands and Malahide Cricket Club in Ireland.
Each franchise will play every other team twice in a round-robin format. The top team qualifies directly for the final, while the second and third-placed sides contest a Qualifier for the remaining spot.
The season opens at Voorburg with Rotterdam Dockers, backed by Jonty Rhodes, Faf du Plessis, Heinrich Klaasen, and John Abraham, taking on Amsterdam Flames, led by Steve Waugh and Jamie Dwyer. Voorburg hosts the opening phase before the action moves to Malahide for the remainder of the league stage, with Dublin also hosting the Qualifier and the inaugural Final.
Over 26 days and 32 matches, six teams will compete for the inaugural title, featuring global stars including Tim David, Steve Smith, Ravichandran Ashwin, Faf du Plessis, Glenn Maxwell, Heinrich Klaasen, Mitchell Marsh, Lungi Ngidi, and Trent Boult, alongside European players such as Paul Stirling, Scott Edwards, Josh Little, Jai Moondra, and Richie Berrington.
The second match on August 27 sees Rahul Dravid’s Dublin Guardians, led by Ravichandran Ashwin, face Glenn Maxwell’s Belfast Wolves.
