The DP World ILT20 has continued to open doors for emerging talent from associate nations, including the UAE. With the fourth edition once again showcasing several young players delivering strong performances, the exposure gained from sharing dressing rooms with elite international cricket-

ers is helping them prepare for competition at the highest level.

"The standard of the local players is lifting, courtesy of being part of this tournament over the last two or three years," said former New Zealand cricketer Simon Doull, who is part of the ILT20 commentary panel.

"We're seeing more of them being trusted with important roles, and that's a real positive from this season," Doull added.
