Champions League not part of FTP,says Lorgat

The Champions League Twenty20 competition set to take place for the first time later this year has not been incorporated into the Future Tours Programme

The International Cricket Council (ICC) said that,contrary to some recent media reports,the Champions League Twenty20 competition set to take place for the first time later this year has not been incorporated into the Future Tours Programme (FTP).

Modi had been quoted as saying on the official IPL website that the Champions League had already been slotted in as part of the FTP. But ICC Chief Executive Haroon Lorgat said: We worked together last October to come up with a date for this years Champions League tournament that was mutually convenient for all.

The FTP does not include any fixtures between domestic teams,even those from more than one country and only features ICC events,such as the ICC Cricket World Cup,the ICC Champions Trophy and the ICC World Twenty20,and bilateral fixtures between Full Member international teams.
