[czar]

Definitely Global T20 as BPL is low quality Bangla league.

 

[saeed5646]

Exctied for global league it will have some excellent local talent from south africa specaily some good fast bowlers

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Has BPL started paying money on time?

Yes payment has already been done and dusted for the last two seasons.

The mercenaries are choosing the SA league aren't they?

Pretty sure McCullum, KP and Gayle were at the launch for the league.

Gayle KP and Baz to play in global T20. Bravo too. Not sure about the others but so far international and Mercenaries from Lanka and SriLanka so far have been roped in BPL. Pretty Afghanistan players are also in BPL. A good reason why SC players will prefer BPL because of the travel convenience, the familiar crowd.

Personally speaking that will hurt global T20 a lot because that would mean the market in the SC i.e BD Pak Afg Lanka will not focus on global T20 especially Bangladeshis. Ironically Pakistan companies own two teams in global T20 but Pakistan players are all in BPL. Yes 95% of them.

I think they made a big mistake arranging it in November like BPL. At the end of the day it will not only hurt themselves but the BPL as well, not that the latter is any of their business.

Perhaps another thing that might global T20 is that some of their former nationals like Rossow and Abbott are playing in BPL.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

The Global T20 League.

Okay add following players to Global T20 tally

Malinga
Roy
Morgan
Pollard

Not bad

and what if PCB doesnot give a NOC then

 

[DRsohail]

bpl should have picked some afghani and zim players.they are excellent..and malik from pakistan,,even fakhar zaman will be good addition..

 

[DRsohail]

and what if PCB doesnot give a NOC then

pcb should not be stupid enough to not give them NOC until there is firstclass matches at the same time...

 

[Aman]

No offense intended to the BPL, but I don't care who they get.

The quality of the local players in SA is FAR higher. This is why the BBL can get away with a few big name signings and still produce the best quality cricket.

 

[Major]

The one that pays more. Dahh

 

[saeed5646]

pcb should not be stupid enough to not give them NOC until there is firstclass matches at the same time...

there is Rift between the both the board and strong message need to send across to BCB

on the positive note global t20 league is also going on at similar time so players need to try their luck

good pak player will always find a place in any team of global league

if PCB can pay them the amount these leagues are giving than why not they should play FC

 

[MMHS]

Not sure how the status of T20 leagues determine who is likely to play where. It's a money making machine & whoever pays more players will go there - as simple as that.

If we have the list of common players & their bid amount on both league - right now every kid can tell who'll play where. There is a reason that almost every board (whose players are welcomed to IPL) has accepted a 10 weeks window in cricket calendar - because they can't buy back their players, neither can risk substandard international matches tussling with IPL for air time money.

Some of the trolling efforts are praise worthy but shallow - those trolls didn't notice that half of PAK national team last year skipped QA tournament for a schedule caste BPL, not from the love of Bangladesh.

Hope I haven't touched some nerves.

Thanks, at least you wrote something after my post. Otherwise, I was filling almost guilty for a premature death of a "potential" exciting thread after my nervous breakdown.

 

[Commander]

All Pakistani players should try the Global T20 league if offered the chance over the BPL. Pakistani owners are involved in the Global T20 league and overall it will have higher quality cricket compared to the BPL

 

[shabir kham]

I did not care, I just love ❤ watching PSL,

 

[super hitter]

Never watched any of the two, for me it is;

PSL
CPL

Global T20 has no Pakistani's so Bpl is my preference but then again, I don't watch it!

 

[Pakpak]

Is the draft roster for Global T20 out yet? If not than I have doubts that atleast half of BPL roster is gonna be unavailable once the players are selected for Global T20 roster

 

[Hasan2K8]

BPL5 - 5th edition. Older than PSL, Global, SLPL put together. 3rd oldest T20 PL, have some respect. PSL is nothing great but obviously to Pak fans it's the best thing since sliced bread as with anything 'Pakistan' related, such is the nationalism in some peoples blood!

BPL no doubt has dissatisfied me in tv quality, combox, organised not well. But that's a thing of the past now, this year GTV will host it, three venues, teams have started to do business and organisation much early than previous years. Apart from BPL 1 the rest been poorly organised with lack of professionalism but still the leagues did well financially and ah, even Indian channels broadcast it (if it was that low quality I don't think they would bother buying the rights).

What BPL is desperate for is proper home and away games, even I'm sick of everything in Dhaka, this edition Sylhet venue is ready to host as the stadium will be finished but this needs to go every corner of BD, we need stadiums in Rajshahi, Rangpur, Comilla and Khulna already has International stadium where Abul Hasan made a test 100 at 10 v WI 2012, so play it there. Few of the reasons it's been bad quality because mostnof the matches are like neutral and not proper home and away, and marketing/build-up,advertising was very bad previously.

This year edition will be grand success, because they are doing everything what they should be leading right, leading upto a tournament - 5 months before in this case, instead few weeks before.

 

[super hitter]

But now since they are selected, they have to play bpl, Global t20 will loose it all the hype

Why does BPL want players that are on par with Nepal level? And that too en mass!!

it was pakistan who rejected bangladesh home series not BD so bcb is one who is fooled not the Pcb

Bcb should have taken that on the chin and should have not allowed a single pak player to participate

in BPL.

reality is neither the pcb or bcb have money to stop pakistan/bd players to particpate in any league(unless

any international fixture).What if BD premium players come to pakistan for PSL matches will BCB stop and

Compensate that due to fear of security concerns?

As a fan I would be distraught at BCB if the player agreed but BCB denied. BCB gave permission to Anamul Haque. Infact Shakib and Tamim had discussion with Afridi about their availability in case matches are held in Pakistan

Firstly, if players have no worries then I as a fan have no complaints. But sending an entire national teams (30 men roughly) including many foreigners is a completely different thing.

BCB can compensate 3/4 BD players who participate in PSL. PCB can't compensate 20+ players. And you are right BCB is letting Pakistan players play as that will improve quality somewhat and garner interest in Pakistan. However even in Pakistan players were irrelevant for BPL BCB Is too diplomatic to cut off ties with Pakistan. Cricket is a sport played by only a handful of teams.

The same way I personally would advice PCB shutting the door on BD players for PSL. Yes Tamim Shakib Riad will not too be significant(still top players), they will attract fans from Bangladesh. PCB will earn a huge money just because of the TVR from Bangladesh considering 4/5 of our boys are playing in a league at a time zone ideal.

BCB has favored long term relation and short term profit ahead of their ego. I think in the long run PCB too need to follow suit.

BCB need PCB. PCB need BCB. Delusional fans need to realize this instead of throwing dirt on each other.

Not sure what's your point here, in respect to which league players will choose? PCB declined to tour BD, because they can't host BD in UAE for financial reason, while BD won't tour PAK for security concerns - though, PAK is hosting other teams in UAE, while apart from ZIM, no other team visited PAK even for a T20 in last 8 years - who is fooling who, you can have a better idea, if you read all the posts in PP itself regarding this issue - ironically, most of the posts are made by PAK posters as well.

Regarding blocking BD players from PSL - at least I can tell you that Hasina Govt. would have tried that - at least for her, there is more than enough reasons. But, Bangladesh is not a failed state, neither a banana republic, that someone can stop professionals to earn legal money in their profession from vaunted ego - I hope you have got the clue how a proper system runs professionally in my salty response. BCB or BD cricketers are not someone's inherited property.

I explained it several times & once more for the last time - BD as a national team, can't tour PAK right now even if Jamat E Islam is in power with 2/3rd majority; because there is a functional constitution still working. Last time BCB agreed to send a team & there was a selection committee meeting as well - probable players were unofficially asked to prepare for the camp also, & I am telling you this in writing. Problem is, considering PAK's security situation, a gentleman (a Supreme Court lawyer, a bitter anti Pakistani, but doesn't matter again - Bangladesh is not a Banana republic), filed a law suit to justify BCB's decision to send a team risking players.

There was a proper legal trial, because again - Bangladesh is not a failed state, run at a gun point, where BCB couldn't convince Public Prosecutor regarding players safety in PAK - they brought people from foreign service, from NGOs, from Military security experts, from ICC office & from FICA (?) or some agency that looks after players security in the witness box. After proper hearing, BCB lost the case & it takes one person to file such a law suit - BCB will have to go through the whole cycle once more - to prove why they don't think that PAK isn't unsafe for BD team? As long as PAK's situation/status as a high risk country doesn't change - make Nawaz Sharif BD's Prime Minister, BD team under National color can't tour PAK - as long as some General doesn't send a note to Supreme Court at gun point - I hope, you have got this clue as well.

Coming to individual players - the situation is different. For a clue, I can request you to find out all the doubles partners of Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi & their nationality - particularly for Wimbledon. BCB can't decline any player NOC for a professional tournament, as long as it's ICC affiliated & not listed as corrupt - they'll lose the legal battle with compensation payment every time - because again, there is a proper judicial system in Bangladesh, it's not a failed statw. If any player goes to play on personal terms at Mogadishu or South Wazirstan or Al Raqqa, only BCB can do is send a precaution notice as long as the tournament isn't black listed by ICC - because, BCB isn't Papon's father's property. If any one files a law suit - this time it's the player's responsibility to clear his name, not BCB's & they player will get compensation on defame charge from anyone that tries to block his participation.

Hope it helps - don't mix things that you don't understand, or not willing to understand. I hear people asking questions if BPL pays the players or not - because these are fool & tool. Most of PAK national players send their name for BPL draft every year - what this novices are telling is PAK national players are beggars - taking their chances to earn some money, risking non payment for their effort ... like beggars do at street - "Allah ke waste kuch day do bhai". What ever is thrown at them is Shukar Alhamdulillah, but if someone doesn't give anything, they don't curse that person - starts for their next attempt, like PAK players will send their name for draft again next year.

[anonymous_guy]

All the Pakistani players should avoid #BPL since it has quiet a dodgy past, and currently 2 pakistani's name have surfaced in relation of match fixing in BPL2013.
even last year it was ALLEGED that Imad Wasim was approached by a bookie.

When a league can't give proper security against bookies it better to avoid the league as many talented Pakistani player have fallen prey to these flight bookies...
Its better to loose some dollors than to put their career on the line for ever...

No more Amir, Asif, Butt.
No more Sharjeel, Khalid.

 

[Hasan123]

As mentioned above, players will go where they will get the most money. Global league will offer better pay I'm assuming so expecting that to be prioritised over the BPL.

What do you mean the league can't give proper security? It's upto to the players and their agents to avoid these situations

Focus on PSL where a good number of Pakistan cricketers were approached and there has been massive drama.

South Africa probably pays more and also pays more reliably.

Both BPL and global T20 will be held at the same time. So far there has been good interest for both leagues.
Which competition will players prefer?

BPL has a very impressive line up this year. And i think the quality of cricket will hopefully be much better compared to previous years. Good work by BPL. And good to see lots of pak players in there. Will be a fun tournament to watch. Anyone knows if GEO tv will be showing this in pak?

I think there are more than enough players in the world for 2 or even 3 T20 leagues to run AT THE SAME TIME. Plenty of quality players to choose from. Not every one will get grabbed by global t20 or by BPL. So not an issue in terms of player quality. Also since most viewership is domestic, most leagues will get plenty of viewers too. I dont see a problem at all.

I know it's hard for you to accept that Bangladesh is not that important in bigger scheme of things for other big boards.

The passive aggressive post is Hilarious. In the last 6 months or so you have said :

- Pakistan will be playing the likes of Nepal and Scotland
- Rashid Latif is the brightest son of Karachi and not Miandad as he is Gujarati.

I will say no more......

First part is your face saving drivel, which little you deserve after reading what I did in my post, if you can read between the lines - so keep it with you.

Next part is your incapability of comprehension (and a bit of fraudulence with twisting words), can't help much either.

I wish you could have something more to say.....

 

[as-95]

Lets be honest. South africa is a much more attractive country to reside in during the tournament than poor underdeveloped Bangladesh. I will not even delve into the cricketing perspective as playing in SA is a far better prospect than facing the local Bangladeshi players. Unless the players are extremely fond of consuming fish, they will not be choosing the BPL over Global T20.

For the first paragraph

It is extremly stupid of you if you have tried to bring the country into this neither pakistan is fail state nor BD so cut the BS please.if i remind you the only country which have visited in uae apart from the top 6 is westindies which have only visited once in the 9 years of pakistan home uae so you better understand why pcb is reluntant to invite the ban and asked BD to visit in the pak which they have decline and even they have rejected to comphensate pcb by playing in bd

For second and 3rd paragraph

I know Bd is best country and best Cricket board but it was simple question which i think you take to heart and again bring the fail state into this which was not expected from guy like you .The simple answer which i get from you post is BD board cannot comphensate the players and security concern are just a small reason if you pay them high they will come and watch when world 11 visits it will consist of 11 players and coaching stuff

Should i tell you the players list from the top countries of how apply for PSL draft was as big as pakistan players are in BPL so it does not mean that particular country is poor or what you are trying to say in last paragraph

As far as the quality of cricket is concerned

Ipl
Bbl
Daylight
Moonlight
Kerosene light
Other low level leagues like CPL, slpl, BPL, PSL.

There's hardly any difference between these leagues. None of these above mentioned leagues have top quality international players.

Agree , I personally find PSL very boring to watch because of pitches in UAE.

 

[Hawkeye]

Not sure how the status of T20 leagues determine who is likely to play where��. It's a money making machine & whoever pays more players will go there - as simple as that.

If we have the list of common players & their bid amount on both league - right now every kid can tell who'll play where. There is a reason that almost every board (whose players are welcomed to IPL) has accepted a 10 weeks window in cricket calendar - because they can't buy back their players, neither can risk substandard international matches tussling with IPL for air time money.

Some of the trolling efforts are praise worthy but shallow - those trolls didn't notice that half of PAK national team last year skipped QA tournament for a schedule caste BPL, not from the love of Bangladesh.

Hope I haven't touched some nerves.

It's indeed decided by who pays the most.

Anyway, don't reply to troll posts as it gathers even more trolls.

You have to understand there will always be some who have nothing constructive to add.

what is the obsession with bbl its a rubbish tournament nowherr near ipl,psl ,cpl or even bpl. The australia team also in t20 are rubbish so if their domestic players are so good why are their national players so rubbish

 

[Boi]

I'd rather the PCB compensated the likes of Hasan, Fakhar and Shadab so they can just focus on our domestic season. Rubbish like Anwar Ali, Shehzad etc should be allowed to go if they do get picked.

Agree, people just blindly support the BBL to put down other leagues. Australia is officially the Worse T20 Side and if BBL is really oozing with local talent and quality then they should be doing a lot better

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Chris Lynn is injured and is out of the BPL.

 

[saifi]

Personally speaking that will hurt global T20 a lot because that would mean the market in the SC i.e BD Pak Afg Lanka will not focus on global T20 especially Bangladeshis. Ironically Pakistan companies own two teams in global T20 but Pakistan players are all in BPL. Yes 95% of them.

1 most of pak players will play in global T20.Even L.qalandars owner said he will first try to take sarfaraz in his team
2 Also i hope pak prefer Global T20.It will help them in future AUS and SA tours and PCB bans BPL.

The Pakistani players have already been signed up for BPL. They probably won't put their names up for global T20 draft where their participation is not guaranteed.

Players went with the safe option of BPL because they know they will be playing regardless unless PCB pulls the cord. Perhaps if they put their name in the global T20 draft they might even miss out on BPL. Perhaps Afridi Hassan Amir ST were surefire picks but the same can't be said about the rest. Bear in mind only 6 foreigners allowed per team so 48 foreigners only.

Now if PCB recently states that NOC won't be published then it's a different situation altogether.

I believe we should wait for the Global T20 league's draft, things would be much clear then, now its just assumptions.

 

[nighthawk23]

Global T20 league will never be viable in its current timeslot. At least with the BPL there is some wiggle room unless a team is touring India. Global T20 league is right in the middle of the busy cricketing season at the end of the year. Yes the BBL thrives at the point of the year but at least it don't pretend to cater to a global audience and for all purposes is more of a domestic league.

Confirmed from the official page of Comilla Victorians team. They even have a seperate post for it.

Obviously not fake but if Buttler makes it to the ashes squad he won't be playing in the BPL for sure.

What in the world?! How have they improved their foreign player quality so much suddenly? Hope the games are better this time around and HD cameras are used because this sounds amazing. Sad Misbah hasn't been signed. :/

By the way, are Afridi and Amir also part of the BPL?

Yes both are playing for the same team although I think Amir Sarfaraz Shadab Hassan will be busy with Srilanka tests.

Pretty good. Second only to IPL in terms of foreign player quality, I suppose. However, since IPL does not consist of T20 legends like Afridi or a Champion Trophy winning team, the few Villiers, Smith's, Warner's and Co. can be ignored.

"Pay as you play" contract and that allows booking unlimited foreigners with 2 major conditions -
1. A player can't play for multiple teams in a single season
2. There is a cap on highest no. of foreigners in one starting XI (4, I believe).

So you shouldn't be surprised even if AB, Smith, Root or if allowed Kohli turning for 1/2 matches and paid obnoxiously.

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

The best trick of BPL from 3rd(actually 4th) edition is 'pay as you play' . It ends all the pay issues of previous editions. That's why BPL became more lucrative for all big names of world cricket.

Looking like a mess. Too many international players. No settled squads. No limit on number of players in a squad. The local talent will find it difficult to shine in presence of so many quality internationals.

 

[mak36]

I have said this before- which such leagues the board has to balance (i) attracting foreign stars/entertainment (and possibly making money) and (ii) developing local talent.

Looks like BPL has prioritised the former but at the cost of the latter. Pay and play is great for the individual stars but terrible for local talent. Couple that with the increase to five international players being allowed in the playing xi and you can see why local talent will start to get squeezed. What's worse is that pay and play also means the local players won't really have a chance to mingle with the international players and learn from them etc. That's before you consider the fact that players are unlikely to hit form if they are only playing 1/2 matches. Players are less likely to care when they are on a pay as you go deal. By comparison, leagues where franchises have to be more selective with their international signings means players are more likely to perform as (i) they will be given an extended run (ii) they know they will only be resigned for the next year if they perform.

Further, pay and play also means it is less likely fans will develop loyalty to the teams- in the long term this could be very damaging from a marketing point of view.

All in all, pay and play is great for the individual stars but terrible planning from BCB. It won't raise standards/develop talent which I would have thought would be more important to Bangladesh given they are still a "smaller" team. Not to mention this will be a huge drain on resources.

I would take any other league who have settled squads beforehand rather than this league with pay and play rule. This is not how major competitions work.

 

[Executioner]

BPL doesn't have any window in the calender. The play as you go rule is good for the teams in terms of competitiveness.

However I agree that a lot of quality players will be sitting on the bench. It's likely someone like Gunaratne won't get a game. Someone like Colin Munro or Nabi will be benched.

Ideally should have been 8 players in the squad initially and 2 players additional if some players face injury or has sudden international callup.

Right now it's a big mess. However loyalty isn't important here. Teams can retain their players if the want dasil

I think its about taking the tournament one step at a time. BPL has improved

So far fixing and payment fiascos has been monitored.
In the future there will be home and away system.

BCB don't consider BPL as to grooming place for local talents. They have many age level tournaments,leagues,2 first class tournaments,foreign tours and others to groom young talents. Even under high performance program all the future talents are being groom all the year and they are also sent to foreign tours (recent Australia) to get experience. BCB don't count BPL as a grooming event.

I know but I think that's a mistake.

In any case, it's one thing to say the BPL is not primarily intended to develop local talent, but it's another to embark on initiatives which are actually regressive and will harm local player development.

I wouldn't say that BPL has improved yet. Yes they have signed some good international players but they have signed too many of them that this is looking very unprofessional at the moment.
