The ongoing fifth season of Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) is all set to telecast throughout the world from Tuesday. The tournament has already commenced on November 4 and has now received the green signal after four matches. The first phase of the league is being played in Sylhet as the franchise Sylhet Sixers is playing its third game. However, Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) would be now excited as the efforts of the local players will be watched worldwide which will only help them in the future.
The event is no less than a cricketing festival in the country as the fans are extremely passionate about their cricket. The players like Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mashrafe Mortaza and many more are the superstars for them. Also, the new concept of allowing 5 overseas players in the playing XI has been introduced by the officials of the tournament to attract the viewership. But the step has hurt the local talent as the franchise concentrated more on picking foreign players in their squad during the auction.
BCB confirmed the news
BCB confirmed the news on Monday as the fans of the tournament across the World will be finally blessed with some live cricketing action. Maasranga and Gazi Television have brought the rights to telecast BPL in the Bangladesh Territory. The rabbithole application is also authorized to telecast the matches live.
Sylhet Sixers have taken the competition by the storm so far and the youngsters have really played well. The team is not boasted of many superstars and still, they have managed to win both their opening games. They floored one of the strongest teams Dhaka Dynamites in the inaugural match of the season comfortably. Also, they managed to defeat Comilla Victorians in their next game. Now they are all set to take on Rajshahi Kings in their next fixture and would love to continue winning the games.
