A group of European nations, including Ireland, the Netherlands, and Scotland, is actively working on a board to invent a new league, which will be an exclusive tournament for the European cricket teams only.
The proposed plan for the European teams tournament was approved by the Melbourne Cricket Club (MCC) as this tournament can grow the popularity of cricket in the European nations. It was previously reported that England was also invited to join the league.
England's standpoint is now questionable
"However, it is understood the ECB indicated they would not sign off on a staging agreement required for a T20 international tournament to take place within their jurisdiction", BCC Sport mentioned in their report.
Earlier this year, the organizers were hopeful about England's active participation in the league. But now, the scenario is shaping differently as the Three Lions are now looking more sceptical, and an obvious one. Without the support of the ECB, will the other European nations be able to arrange the tournament? The question has already started to float as the difference between the European teams is massive.
Will it be possible to host an all-European cricket tournament?
Beyond these four nations, infrastructure for cricket in other European nations is very minimal, with limited resources, and hosting a multi-nation tournament is looking like a possibility. It will be huge if Ireland, Scotland, and the Netherlands manage to host a European T20 tournament without the support of the ECB.
As of now, nothing is finalized yet; talks are on. It is also believed that the ECB may have to deal with their county teams if they allow an outside tournament at their premier grounds in between a packed schedule.
