BSS, Dhaka :
In a bid to involve with the team more passionately and build a team culture as well as bonding, Bangladesh star players urged the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) governing council to instruct the franchise to sing with an Icon for at least two or three years.
The players like Tamim Iqbal, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mahmdullah Riyad, Shakib Al Hasan and Mashrafe Bin Mortaza who are considered as the big stars of the country hardly could continue for two years in a row in a BPL team.
According to Tamim, this type of discontinuity with a team, doesn’t allow them to involve with a team more passionately like what Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and other players did in Indian Premier League (IPL).
“I played for Comilla Victorians two years in a row. In the first year, I didn’t feel that much for the team but in the second year, it feels like the team is mine,” Tamim Iqbal has recently said during an Instagram chat session with Mushfiqur Rahim.
“BPL is a huge platform for our players, so we should capitalize on it. I truly feel that if we the players could play for a certain team for two-three years or for a longer period, the bonding with the team and also with the fans of the region will get even stronger,” he added.
“If you look at IPL, you will see such type of continuity. Dhoni is for Chennai and it is his home while Rohit is for Mumbai.
