This season’s excitement is further amplified by a groundbreaking three-year broadcast deal with Disney Star, ensuring extensive coverage in both English and regional languages across India. As the tournament's global fanbase continues to grow, teams will battle it out in a thrilling 12-day competition from November 21 to December 2, culminating with the final match on UAE's 53rd National Day at the iconic Zayed Cricket Stadium until 2028.

Commenting on the 2024 season of Abu Dhabi T10, Shaji Ul Mulk, Chairman of T10 Sports Management, said, “The T10 format has truly revolutionized cricket in recent years, and the level of global interest continues to soar. The incredible talent pool for this season speaks volumes about the excitement surrounding the format. With the addition of two new teams and our landmark Disney Star broadcast deal, the 2024 season will be our biggest yet. It’s evident that the format has made a great impact on the cricket world. Fans can expect unprecedented action and entertainment—it’s going to be a spectacle like no other.”

Matt Boucher, CEO of Abu Dhabi Cricket & Sports Hub, added: “We’re excited to deliver yet another world-class lineup at the 2024 Abu Dhabi T10, which has thrived since we brought the competition to the UAE capital. Abu Dhabi is now a global centre for sport, and the Abu Dhabi T10 - approaching its sixth edition in the emirate - has played a significant part in making that vision of the government a reality. With the tournament this year expanding its global reach through a game-changing deal with Disney Star, plus the onboarding of two new teams, there are even more exciting times ahead for the competition and even more opportunities for us to showcase this incredible city to the world. We remain firmly committed to the league and there are more major announcements to come, so watch this space!”
