However, he will not be available for the entire tournament, as the board has allowed him to play only until the start of Bangladesh’s T20I series against Ireland.
Saif will represent the Aspin Stallions in this edition of the T10 League.
The Abu Dhabi T10 League is set to begin on November 18, with the final scheduled for November 30. Meanwhile, Bangladesh’s T20I series against Ireland is scheduled to start on November 27, which means Saif must return home before that. His NOC is valid until November 23.
Tiger pacer Nahid Rana has also secured a team, Vista Riders, but BCB did not grant him an NOC as matches of the National Cricket League (NCL) are scheduled to take place at the same time.
Meanwhile, all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan will captain the Royal Champs in the tournament.
