many famous foreign players played in dhaka league. raman lamba, afridi, takalo. i am not sure i think wasim akram also played. and i know few srilankan national team players played in dhaka league. by making dhaka league like how our national league is rightnow (having 4 days match followed by 1 day match), this will attract many more players. specially if bcb could make this into a first class tournament. not only dhaka league there should be some kind of cricket throughout the year. corporate league, national league. we could have district playing against eachother like we have now in football. bcb needs to improve our domestic cricket asap. dhaka league should be the proving ground for players who wants to get into the national team or a-team.
i believe if dhaka league becomes a first class tournament and it allows 3 foreign players in each team, this league will gain popularity. bcb will make more money and players will make more money. i dont know why bcb is not trying to make dhaka league into a first class tournament.
