Dashing opener Tamim Iqbal refused to play in the upcoming Caribbean Premier League (CPL). A franchisee of CPL proposed Tamim Iqbal to play in the forthcoming CPL. The franchisee offered Tamim to give him US $ 90,000 to take part in the CPL wearing their jersey. But the Captain of Bangladesh Cricket (ODI) team Tamim Iqbal refused the proposal for two reasons. Mahmudullah Riyad and Mustafizur Rahman, the other players of Bangladesh National Cricket team, also rejected the offer to play in CPL. They got attractive proposals from the franchisees of CPL to play in the League.
Tamim Iqbal said to the newsmen, ” I rejected the proposal for two reasons. I had an agreement with a club, which will participate in the ensuing Dhaka Premier League (DPL). If the DPL starts, I have to play in that club. The other reason is my family. The players, who will take part in CPL, will travel by chartered flight of aeroplane. So, I had no easy access to return home. I cannot return home for my family if necessary.”
Mahmudullah Riyad and Mustafizur Rahman, the two players of Bangladesh National Cricket team, who refused to take part in the CPL after getting proposals from two franchisees of CPL disclosed the reasons to reject the offer to play in the CPL.
