CHENNAI (Reuters) - South Africa's Cape Cobras will take on Indian Premier League (IPL) runners-up Bangalore Royal Challengers in the opening Twenty20 Champions League game at the Indian side's home ground on Oct. 8.
The inaugural edition of the event was postponed after last year's militant attacks in Mumbai and the 16-day event, to be played at three Indian venues, will feature 12 sides from seven countries after organisers increased the field by four.
"The Champions League... is the perfect tournament to crown the best-of-the-best in domestic Twenty20 cricket worldwide and will capture the imagination of the sporting public around the world," IPL chairman Lalit Modi said in a statement
