"The six-team league is pencilled in for January next year, the same time several of the signed talent will be in Australia competing in the KFC Big Bash League."
Not sure if that means next month or it means in 13 months time, but still here's the blokes playing BBL also playing here:
Ben Laughlin, Shaun Tait, Brad Hodge, Jacques Kallis, Kumar Sangakkara, Nathan Hauritz, Michael Lumb, Johan Botha, Michael Carberry

So what happens when they overlap? Surely they aren't all going to leave the BBL for this load of crap with a bunch of retired farts?

What sort of name...

Also, found this:

QuoteLeague's first edition is scheduled to play between 28 January and 14 February 2016.

My understanding is BBL wraps up a few days before then.
