Yorkshire trio Dawid Malan, Adil Rashid and Jonny Bairstow, the latter two from Bradford, are all set to feature in the star-studded Abu Dhabi T10 League over the next fortnight.
The likes of Jos Buttler, Rashid Khan and former Yorkshire player Donavan Ferreira are all taking part in the 10-team tournament too.
It starts tomorrow and runs through until December 2, with games taking place at the Sheikh Zayed international Stadium, where Yorkshire played champion county fixtures in both 2015 and then 2016.
Bairstow is playing for Team Abu Dhabi alongside Phil Salt, while Malan and Rashid are both lining up for UP Nawabs.
