Ninety–90 Bash, also known as the 90/90 is an upcoming annual franchise-based 90-ball cricket league in the United Arab Emirates.[1] It will be slightly shorter than The Hundred which is a 100-ball cricket format founded by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB). The first edition of the tournament is planned to be held in 2022.[2] It will originally be the extended version of the T10 League, a Ten10 cricket league in the United Arab Emirates launched and owned by T Ten Sports Management.[3] Matches will be 15-overs per side and the duration of each match will be approximately 135 minutes (2 hours and 15 minutes). The league is officially approved by the Emirates Cricket Board.[4] Originally, in August 2019, the tournament was proposed to be started from 2020, with an aim to grow the popularity of cricket in UAE.[5][6] It is now scheduled to be held from May to June 2022.[7][needs update]
