The T20 League which was originally slated to𝔍 be played from August 1 to 21, had been r🧸escheduled last month due to the economic crisis engulfing the island nation.

"It's my pleasure to announce that the LPL will be held from 6th to 23rd December," LPL tourn♔ament organiser Samantha Dodanwela was quoted as saying by ESPNCricinfo.

The league's promoters, 🃏IPG, also confirmed the news o🅺n Twitter.

Despite the economic crisis and politic🎶al unrest, Sri Lanka had successfully hosted Australia for a month-long series in July.

However, the Asia Cup, to be played from August 27 to Sep🐻tember 11 in🔯 the island nation, was moved to UAE.

A decision on the re-draft is yet to be taken.

"𒁃;It is understood that the tournament organisers are deciding between two options: either holding a fresh draft, or going ahead with as many of the available players as possible with only the slots taken up by any unavailable foreign players being re-drafted," the report read.
