<![CDATA[Major Update coming from upcoming Bangladesh Premier League: Know more about it]]> https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/major-update-coming-from-upcoming-bangladesh-premier-league-know-more-about-it/ https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/major-update-coming-from-upcoming-bangladesh-premier-league-know-more-about-it/ Sat, 11 Oct 2025 20:09:22 GMT

There is a major update from the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) as the number of teams and the tournament timeline for the next edition have been revealed. 

Next BPL will run with 5 teams from mid-December to mid-January

While the T20 leagues are dominating world cricket, the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 timeline has also put the upcoming BPL edition under pressure. India and Sri Lanka will jointly host the upcoming men's T20 World Cup in February and March 2026. So, the BPL 2025/26 will run between mid-December and mid-January, unlike the previous editions that stretched to at least February. 

The BPL GC secretary Iftikhar Rahman Mithu has also confirmed that they will comfortably run the BPL 2025/26 season within the new timeline with five teams. Since the inaugural edition of the BPL in 2012, the lowest number of teams participating in a tournament was six, which happened thrice (2012, 2015, and 2022). However, the GC secretary also added that the tournament could return to six or seven teams in the future.

Iftikhar told reporters, "The board has decided to host the BPL from mid-December to mid-January. Given the short window we have this year, we are comfortable with five teams. That doesn't mean it can't be six or seven in the future, but our priority is to stage a five-team BPL within a one-month window."

He further clarified, "We have to finish in the month of January. The window he mentioned, we have to finish before the February World Cup. I am not saying that it cannot be six or seven but at this point we are comfortable running it with five teams in this one-month window. So, our priority is the first five teams. We are starting fresh this year. The Expression of Interest (EOI) will be announced tomorrow."

Defending champions may not play upcoming BPL edition

According to the latest Cricbuzz report, the last two-time champions Fortune Barishal may not participate in the forthcoming BPL edition. Their captain Tamim Iqbal recently said that they won't participate in any cricket tournament under the leadership of Aminul Islam Bulbul after terming his position as the President of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) illegal. 

However, hopeful Iftikhar has requested the latest two-time BPL champions to stay in the upcoming BPL edition. He said, "My request is that it would be good if they (Fortune Barishal team) come. I can't force anyone to come. We welcome them; they have run their team well and we have never had any complaints. So, we always want well-managed teams like theirs to participate. We are open, but we can't force anyone."

<![CDATA[World Club Championship 2026: Full list of participating countries]]> https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/world-club-championship-2026-full-list-of-participating-countries/ https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/world-club-championship-2026-full-list-of-participating-countries/ Wed, 23 Jul 2025 16:31:58 GMT

Cricket is gearing up for a major global shake-up as the Champions League T20 format is set to return – this time with a new identity. Reports suggest the revamped competition will be called the World Club Championship, bringing together the winners of the world’s top T20 franchise leagues in a blockbuster tournament format.

Several sources have indicated that the event will take place in 2026, with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and the England & Wales Cricket Board (ECB) being two of the most invested in the revival. Furthermore, the International Cricket Council (ICC) has also given support to the idea, signalling its desire to take club T20 cricket globally.

Participating Leagues in the Inaugural Edition:

T20 LeagueCountry/Region
Indian Premier League (IPL)India
Big Bash League (BBL)Australia
The HundredEngland
SA20South Africa
Caribbean Premier League (CPL)West Indies
Bangladesh Premier League (BPL)Bangladesh
Major League Cricket (MLC)United States of America
Lanka Premier League (LPL)Sri Lanka
International League T20 (ILT20)United Arab Emirates

However, there’s a major omission. No team from the Pakistan Super League (PSL) will feature in the first edition, reportedly due to Pakistan Cricket Board’s absence from a key meeting held in London. The meeting, hosted under the ICC’s umbrella, was attended by representatives of all the major T20 leagues, including the Emirates League, SA20, CPL, and more. The Lahore Qalandars, the reigning PSL champions, will miss out.

Building a Unified T20 Ecosystem – and Blunting Saudi Ambitions

ECB CEO Richard Gould, in a statement to ESPNcricinfo, confirmed that the tournament is indeed "on the cards" for both men and women, calling it “the next logical step” for the evolution of franchise cricket.

The World Club Championship is also reportedly being fast-tracked to counter the emergence of the Saudi Cricket League, a high-budget T20 initiative backed by a reported USD 400 million investment. Saudi plans to model their league on the tennis Grand Slam format, but opposition from top cricket boards like the BCCI and ECB – who are unlikely to grant NOCs to their players – has already created roadblocks.

With nearly every cricketing nation now boasting a franchise T20 league, a unified global competition makes strategic sense. It not only provides a global stage for top-performing teams but also gives players from emerging leagues – like those in the UAE and USA – a golden opportunity to rub shoulders with the sport’s elite.

A Global Reboot of Franchise Cricket's Biggest Stage

The concept closely mirrors the now-defunct Champions League T20, which ran from 2009 to 2014. That tournament saw top clubs from the IPL, BBL, South Africa’s Ram Slam, and others compete in a high-stakes, intercontinental format. The new World Club Championship aims to revive that legacy – but with a more inclusive, globally aligned structure.

Though the exact format and schedule are still under discussion, the World Club Championship is likely to:

  • Feature winners (or top teams) from each major T20 league
  • Rotate venues globally
  • Feature both men’s and women’s editions in the long run
  • Be supported by strong broadcast and commercial deals

The stage is now being set for what could become cricket’s ultimate franchise showdown. With most of the cricketing world on board and ICC backing secured, the World Club Championship promises to redefine the global T20 calendar – and spark new rivalries along the way.

<![CDATA[BCB confirms potential BPL 2026 schedule shift due to upcoming national elections]]> https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/bcb-confirms-potential-bpl-2026-schedule-shift-due-to-upcoming-national-elections/ https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/bcb-confirms-potential-bpl-2026-schedule-shift-due-to-upcoming-national-elections/ Fri, 11 Jul 2025 18:21:32 GMT

After the July 10 board meeting, BCB director and head of the BPL Governing Council, Mahbub Anam, spoke to the media about the problems with the BPL schedule. While the caretaker government has advised to prepare for elections by December, the actual voting could happen anytime between February and April.

Mahbub said, “If the election happens in December, we might need to shift the tournament to a later time.”

He also made it clear that even with this uncertainty, BCB will continue its work as planned. This includes team planning, marketing, and media rights deals. He added, “Two things are happening. First, we are going ahead with our internal process. Second, the government has asked us to be ready for elections by December. As the date gets closer, we will have a better idea. If we can't host the tournament in December-January, we have another option in May.”

BPL May Shift Due to Election and Global Cricket Calendar

The possible change in the BPL schedule comes after an emergency board meeting held at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium, just a day after Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus directed officials to complete all election preparations by the end of this year. Though general elections in Bangladesh are expected in early 2026, planning must start now. If the new schedule is confirmed, the BPL will directly clash with IPL 2026, PSL 2026, and even the ICC T20 World Cup 2026, which India and Sri Lanka will host in February.

Mahbub Anam Promises Big Changes for BPL

Mahbub Anam, the new BPL chairman, said that the league must raise its standards. He admitted that there were some problems in the past and said that BCB takes full responsibility. “We’ll try to increase the brand value of BPL,” he said.

He also said that the board is looking to add more venues besides Dhaka, Chattogram, and Sylhet. “If new venues meet ICC standards and provide good accommodation for players, we will include them,” Mahbub added.

Mahbub admitted that hosting the BPL in May could cause scheduling issues with both the IPL and PSL, but said BCB is keeping both windows open. “Our planning will not stop,” he said.

BCB to Involve All Stakeholders

To improve the BPL and make it more inclusive, Mahbub said that BCB will speak with key stakeholders, including media professionals, players, coaches, franchise owners, sponsors, and even fans. “From next week, we’ll start discussions to get feedback from all sides. We also want to know what the fans expect from the BPL,” Mahbub added.

<![CDATA[BCB Takes Action: Inquiry Panel Formed to Investigate BPL Fixing Concerns]]> https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/bcb-takes-action-inquiry-panel-formed-to-investigate-bpl-fixing-concerns/ https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/bcb-takes-action-inquiry-panel-formed-to-investigate-bpl-fixing-concerns/ Sun, 02 Feb 2025 12:03:36 GMT

The Chief and  who organize cricket in Bangladesh are very determined to stop cheating. They made a unique team to help find out if people fixed games in the BPL. There are many concerns that some players are not playing the game in the right manner in the BPL, which is a very enjoyable cricket event. 

Reports suggest that the ACU has flagged eight matches for suspected spot fixing and match fixing, following anonymous complaints and media scrutiny. As part of the investigation, 10 players have been placed under the scanner, including six international cricketers from Bangladesh, two uncapped Bangladeshi players, and two foreign cricketers.

BPL Fixing Scandal: BCB Forms Independent Inquiry Panel to Investigate Corruption Allegations

Some cricket teams need to be carefully looked at because they might not be playing by the rules. Durbar Rajshahi and Dhaka Capitals are in a very bad situation because players have said twelve times that they might be doing something unfair. Players are also watching the Sylhet Strikers and Chittagong Kings because they might be cheating too, but less than the others.

They have 6 and 2 warnings each. Some games are very odd, particularly when Fortune Barishal played against Rajshahi on January 6 and the next day when Rangpur Riders played against Dhaka. Those games seemed really, really weird. BCB President Faruque Ahmed has reaffirmed the board’s commitment to eradicating corruption from the league. In an official press release, the BCB emphasized its strict adherence to the ICC Anti Corruption Code and reiterated a zero tolerance policy towards any form of corruption in cricket.

“The BCB remains dedicated to ensuring a fair and transparent cricketing environment and will continue to take all necessary actions to safeguard the integrity of the sport in Bangladesh,” . The latest developments highlight BCB’s determination to restore trust in the league and send a strong message against corruption. As the inquiry progresses, all eyes will be on the BCB and ACU’s actions to uphold the credibility of Bangladesh cricket.
