Good stuff form Hafeez 26 (29) runs and 2/22 in 4 overs

RAJSHAHI 135/8 (20.0 Ovs)
RGR 129/6 (20.0 Ovs) CRR: 6.45
Rajshahi Kings won by 5 runs
 
Comilla Victorians 184-5 off 20 ov

Thisara Perera was brutal there 74 off 26, including 8sixes! took 30 off one over from that SA bowler. Smashed it!

Comilla looks like a good side. Perera, Smith, Afridi, Tamim, Saifuddin, Dawson. Although Smith gone back but Thisra is in the form of his life!
 
Excellent top class innings by Mushfiqur Rahim. 74 off 41 balls, in the chase of 185.

Chittagong Vikings 186/6 19.4 Beat Comilla Victorians 185-5 20



Two quality high scoring, close games today in the BPL. On to the sensational stadium in the city of Sylhet. Where I expect it to be packed to the capacity especially when Sylhet Sixers plays. The atmosphere is more electrifying!
 
Wahab Riaz signed by Comilla Victorians to replace Shoaib Malik who is off to South Africa to join Pakistan ODI Squad
 
Game 1:

Khulna Titans vs Rajshahi Kings

Mohammad Hafeez is in the ODI squad for the series against South Africa, so don't think he will play this game.

Pitches are so bad for batting. 8/4 in a T20 match :facepalm: Warner 0, Pooran 0, Fletcher 4 all hope on Liton Kumar Bradman Das
 
Sylhet Sixers 68 all out against Comilla Victorians, Wahab Riaz took 3 wickets for 15 runs.
 
Junaid and Wahab bossing batsmen in the BPL!

For those who saw the performances, is this a result of poor quality batting or credit where it's due and well done to them hitting form once again?!

I want to talk about an important issue which is the integration of Bangladeshi leg spinners in BPL. As we all know, leg spinners are trending these days in cricket. Now, why didn't the Bangladeshi leg spinners get picked in the BPL draft ? They should have been picked for the greater purpose of Bangladesh cricket. If you don't give chances to the young leg spinners like Jubair Hossain, Rishad Hossain in the BPL, then how will they come through the ranks ? It's disappointing.

Following are some scattered takeaways from me after watching BPL:

1. Sylhet Sixers should play Ebadat Hossain. I want to see how this young quick performs. Heard some good things about him.
2. Mahedi Hasan (Not Miraz) is good.
3. Rony Talukdar looks good in T20. Zunaed Siddique, Shafiul Islam & Taijul Islam has got T20 potential as well.
4. It's important that the local batsmen start scoring runs. So far, guys like Tamim Iqbal, Litton Das, Soumya Sarkar, Sabbir Rahman, Nasir Hossain, Nurul Hasan etc haven't performed.
5. I guess Cox's Bazar has airport, hotel & stadium. Is it possible to stage matches there ? Can someone shed some light ?
 
Forgot to mention Nayeem Hassan. He's also been good.

With Friday being a holiday in Ban, I would like to suggest stage 3 matches (triple header) in Friday by sneaking in a match in the morning at 9/9.30/10 AM start. You can cut the afternoon match of Thursday/Saturday so that the players involved in the Friday morning match can relax a bit. In case of Dhaka, the Friday morning match can be staged in Narayanganj Fatullah stadium (it has already hosted international matches) if there are issues regarding too much pressure given on the Mirpur Dhaka ground because of hosting triple header. I have seen that Australia hosts 3 Big Bash matches (triple header) on their holiday Sunday. By doing so, they can capitalize on increased audience interest & attendance.
 
I happened to catch a glimpse of BPL. A young left armer Mehedi Rana is classified as left arm fast. He took 2 wickets in that over. There is no speed gun. Any bangladesh poster, how is he? [MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION]
 
Sohail Tanvir today's performance.

4 Overs 22 Runs 1 Wicket of Chris Gayle.
 
SYL 187/5 (20.0 Ovs)
RGR 160/6 (20.0 Ovs)


Sylhet Sixers beat Rangpur Riders by 27 runs.
 
Sensational Sylhet! Out batted a strong Rangpur side. Liton Das was on fire, Warner too. Both smashed it all parts. Excellent win!

That young Mehedi Rana looks promising left armer and is tall too. Another one to work with.
 
[MENTION=138796]Sami92[/MENTION]

From my understanding. Coxs Bazar has all the accommodations needed, airport in place but Stadium isnt upto the mark yet. They need to sort it out, just built stands on one side and leave one side with grassbank view of the sea beach! That shouldn’t take long to make. One side with two tier stand or one long high one, other side grassbank, media and grand stand, total capacity 15-25k be fine for now.

Don't know much about these bowlers but from what I have seen, these are their typical speeds, nothing extraordinary. However, they are all physically very well built bowlers. There are no consistent 140K bowlers which means more hammering for BD in tests especially on away tours.

Khaled Ahmed 132-137K
Taskin Ahmed 132-136K
Mehidi Rana 130-134K
 
No games today.

BPL is now starting to pickup some momentum. However, very disappointed with the Bangladeshi talent pool. Only new talents I have seen so far is the pacer Khaled Mahmud and batsman Yasir Ali.

Not Khaled Mahmud, I'm sure you meant to say Khaled Ahmed.

Can't understand why Dhaka Dynamites is playing Rasooli & Huhn ahead of Zazai & Pollard ! Have Zazai & Pollard left or injured ?
 
Can't understand the point of giving the last over to an inexperienced Mohor over Russell that too bowl to Frylinck. This decision of Shakib baffled me.

Ha you are right. There is also that Khaleel Ahmed from India, so it is confusing. They are being saved for playoff games I think.
 
Yasir Shah and Junaid Khan are playing today but unfortunately their team is very weak.

Alex Hales showing off his batting prowess. BPL needs to acquire some Aus players like Chris Lynn and Shane Watson. However, most of the local players are completely duds, I mean what kind of player is this Ariful guy.
 
Yasir Shah concedes 17 off his first over. Took the wicket of Hales! But Gayle tonked him
 
Good game this. Khulna set target of 181. Rangpur have a powerful top 4. Started flying..

If Riders batting clicks it will win them the BPL
 
Why did AB retire... He is smoking it. Just destoryed a quality leggie like Yasir Shah!
 
Mahmudullah Riyad gets AB Devilliers! (41 off 25)

Riyad. Man with the golden arm. Game on..
not really .. Rangpur still cruising. Khulna will need to get Gayle out.

Who is Ebadat Hossain? Why isn't he selected for the test series in NZ? Just saw his over, and he seems the fastest BD pacer clocking near 142K.
 
Excellent performances by Sohail Tanvir (Player of the Match) as he took 3/17 in 4 overs and Mohammad Nawaz who took 3/22 in 4 overs as they took their side Sylhet Sixers to a 76 run victory against Rajshahi Kings in the ongoing BPL

SYL 180/6 (20.0 Ovs), RAJSHAHI 104-all out (18.2 Ovs)

Sylhet Sixers won by 76 runs

Just saw him bowl, Ebadat and Abu Jayed should be given chances instead of ttf shafiul

Abu Jayed isnt that impresive to be honest. I would not pay too much attention to wickets in T20.

However right now I would expect pace bowling to significantly improve after inclusion of Sylhet stadium.

So far here are the fastest I seen them bowl.

Khaled Ahmed 142.6k
Ebadat Hissain 142.5k
Taskin Ahmed 141.2k

There’s many BD fans, BDians here but hardly anyone messaging about BPL. Shows something. No its not the league the issue, it’s called feeling insecure, feeling some sort of inferiority complex.

You’re product is your product, it’s not outsiders product. (No I didn’t copy that dialogue from Race 3). Everyone has their own ways.
BPL has benefitted Bangladesh cricket and that’s what matters. It is however unfortunate it’s not fully riched it’s potentially due to one big thing. It’s not properly home and away (games being played at the right home and away venues), it’s played in three venues which is neutral to most of them unless its the home side playing. Due to lack of infrastructure, accommodations, and issues with logistics, in most of those cities. Only these places: Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Coxs Bazar - have everything; Airport, stadium, 5 star hotels.

But even then the crowds come big numbers. In all the venues crowds is great for even neutral games.
 
Yesterday. Rangpur Riders scoring 239. 2 hundreds one by Alex Hales other by R Rossow (it’s only the 3rd time in T20 history where two batsmen scoring hundreds same innings for the same team) absolutely brilliant stuffs, highly entertaining, biggest score in BPL history. They sure are a powerful team lead well by Mashrafe who has been bowling superb too and his team.


My home team Sylhet Sixers getting few wins lately, ey.. but why did Waqar Yunus not select Jason Roy against Khulna 2 games ago? It was must win game and J saw Roy was on the bench. Opening with Sabbir Rahman is the most idiotic decision ever, Sabbir is a middle order batsman who over batted at 3 for too much.
There’s an outside chance for Sylhet providing outhers lose.
