Chris Gayle has signed with Western Australia and Tasmania is close to securing the services ofLasith Malinga for next season's domestic Twenty20 tournament. The high-profile moves come as Cricket Australia announced plans to expand the Big Bash competition - including the possible adoption of a city-based franchise model - after talks with South Africa and New Zealand on the proposed Southern Premier League stalled.
Gayle will join West Indies teammate Dwayne Bravo, who has already signed with Victoria, in next season's Big Bash. The domestic tournament falls between West Indies' Test and one-day series in Australia, and has been made possible by CA's move to provide states with an additional $50,000 for the sole purpose of luring overseas stars for the Twenty20 tournament
Mann all this fuzz is about Australia's hate for the IPL.... They somehow wanna tarnish the image of IPL.... That is why they even purposefully did not alloe Lee to play in IPL even though he was available rite thro the tournament.....They jus cant digest the fact that Indians are better ambassadors of World sports..........
