Today Cricket Austraila announced that the International Cricket Council won a courtcase against the BCCI and that the Indian Premier League would be shifted to Australia. Cricket Australia announced it would be expanded to something even bigger. Once the news was broken, KFC instantly rang up Cricket Australia and signed a sponsorship Deal.

The competition will now include 12 teams from all over Australia all independntly franchised and no teams from the interstate competitions will compete. Each team will include 15 players. Cricket Australia said there would be a preference for international players to play but if needed, Australian domestic cricketers would be allowed to involve themselves in the competition.

These are the teams which will be playing in the First ever KFC Twenty20 Premier League.
