Saudi Arabia plans to launch the most expensive Twenty20 league.
The Saudi government has already made investments in golf and Formula 1 and is now focusing on cricket.
The discussion for the Saudi League have been ongoing for a year, and they will require approval from the ICC and member countries.

To cover up their poor human right record they have been investing in major leagues & also tookover Newcastle Utd.
