Bangabandhu BPL 2022 squads at a glance after draft
The new season of Bangabandhu
Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) is just around the corner. The draft of this
season has taken place on Monday at a hotel in Dhaka.
A total of six teams will take part
in this year’s BPL, and the matches will be played in three
venues across Dhaka, Chattogram and Sylhet.
BPL will kick off on January 21 at
Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium.
The participating teams had a good
chance to sign one local and three international players directly. The teams
have grabbed the chance well.
Some notable local players failed to
draw the attention of the teams. Former Bangladesh captain Mohammad Ashraful
remained unpicked along with allrounder Nasir Hossain and legspinner Aminul
Islam.
