Matches Posted (G.O.A.T - T20) Round 03 - Live***

I'm interested if a team goes vacant
You can take Barbados Tridents... Also, You can change the name, but franchise should be from West Indies...

Only @Neo 7 left to confirm regarding his participation in this league... I will wait for couple of days before finalizing Season one fixture... In mean time I like to simulate few warmup matches...
