BPL begins in utter chaos and humor without title sponsor

Sports Desk
There is no title sponsor, the trophy has not been made, the advertising digital board is stuck in the Benapole border – in such a chaotic situation, a franchise gave up ownership the day before. Another team could not practice due to ball shortage. Despite the applause, the new season of BPL started in Sylhet on Friday.

Sylhet Titans and Rajshahi Warriors faced off after the inauguration at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium at noon.

Before the BPL, it is customary for all the captains to have a photo session with the trophy. But since the trophy was not ready, that was not organized. Even the names of the captains of all the teams are not finalized. The previous day, the owners of Chittagong Royals withdrew from the BPL. Later, the BCB took charge of the team. No foreigner came to play for this team until Thursday. However, the tournament’s rule is that at least two foreign players must be in the playing XI.

Noakhali Express, who will face Chittagong in the evening, do not have enough balls for their practice. Coaches Khaled Mahmud Sujan and Talha Zubair were angry with the owners for giving them only 3 balls in practice. Later, they were explained and brought back. However, there is no telling what will happen in the rest of the season.

Meanwhile, BPL Governing Council member Secretary Iftekhar Rahman Mithu is still optimistic about the successful completion of the BPL. Although questions are being raised about his role. Former national cricketer Tapas Vaishya addressed Mithu on Facebook. He wrote, “Mr. Mithubhai (BCB Director) you lied while standing up, you said so many things before the team selection, you are looking at the teams, you are looking at 12 requests, 5 later you have taken a total of 6 teams! Do you have eyes or are you blind!!?
Sitting so far away, I also know that at least 2 more teams will suffer for you…. Wait!

“One more thing, there will be match fixing this time too because all the fixing mafias from home and abroad are waiting to see when the game will start and they will also start their game after 2/3 matches… Wait….”

This time, a section of the BCB did not want to hold the BPL due to financial crisis. But Asif Mahmud Sajeeb, while he was the sports advisor, forced the BCB to hold the BPL. But a professional team could not be found. Although 5 teams were initially decided, it could not be formatted in this way, and one team was forced to be added. But in the end, the owners of that team withdrew before the start of the season. Meanwhile, the fact that a franchise league from a Test-playing country in the world did not even get a title sponsor has caused surprise.
