Tamim shortlisted for Sri Lanka Premier League T20 !
Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) has secured the service of Tamim Iqbal including several prominent overseas cricketers for Sri Lanka Premier League T20 (SLPL) which will get underway from July 19. Was hoping to see few more Bangladeshis though. Nice to see Kevin O'Brien in the list

Shakib will be busy with County during that time. That is why he is not able to play, i guess. Otherwise, he would have been picked too for sure !
Now, i do not expect Tamim to get the same treatment that Mashrafe and Shakib got from IPL snobs.

Thanks for the news Naimul_Hd! I'm positive that Tamim will get a bid. It will be a good experience for him and is much better then sitting around at home. It should shake the rust off him before we play some important tours.

I'd love to see him standing next to Arjuna and gauge who has the bigger bhur'hi.

PLEASE NO more of these T20 BullS*its. I hope BD players finally understand that they are going to be sidelined in these crappy tournament. Besides we have the Zim tour coming up. BCB should make its own T20 franchise league. If lanka with 1/3 of BD's GDP can support such a league y cant we?

Sri Lanka's GDP is almost double of Bangladesh. Not one third :P

The GDP per capita of Sri Lanka is much higher then Bangladesh's which is what is more important in my opinion. Also their cricket board is not nearly as bad as ours. Their a lot more organized then ours is. So our leagues are not comparable to theirs.

So we are judging the strength of a country's cricket teams by GDP now?
How come Pakistan, SL, WI & maybe even India had more success than England/NZ in the past despite being much poorer countries? GDP factor? When WI was dominating world cricket their players came from poorer regions unlike english/aussie players at the time

It seemed like it didn't matter back then, but now it seems that it matters more. Of course, you can bring up the argument that why is Australia and NZ declining despite their economies doing so well. I don't think it tells the whole story but it does give a little picture.
India as a country is on the rise economically and it seems their cricket has as well. It makes sense also, they're a cricket crazy country, they have a huge population, they pump in money for the domestic competitions etc. We might not like the IPL, but its been a big hit so far looking at it financially. They have a system that keeps on developing good players.
You look at Pakistan on the other hand, as a country, their going downhill and so is their cricket. The disorganization is absolutely killing them politically and as a cricket nation. Seems their is no planning going on and too much indiscipline. Players are match fixing, retiring and unretiring etc.
And look at us. The economy of BD is getting a little better but still a lot of petty politics goes on and it happens in our cricket. Disorganization also is so evident. If it happens in politics then it will happen in sports as well.
Teams like Aus and NZ are not doing that well now due to the lack of quality now but not because of politics. In Pak, WI, and BD, its just killing the cricket. By the way, sorry for derailing this thread, just wanted to clear things up.

The maximum salary cap for this season is 35000$ ( or 30000)
if there was a T20 league in BD he would get much more
neverthless could be a good experience he needs some practice

Bangladesh will leave for Zimbabwe on July 18, so I don't see any chance of Tamim playing there

then how come SLC has confirmed the service of Tamim ? AFAIK, SLC contacted players first whether they would be available to play.

The highest salary was paid to Shoaib Akhtar:- 18000$

I strongly doubt whether Tamim or any other National player will be allowed to play - or even be able to go.
I have no idea where this 'report' originates but with a BD tour to Zimbabwe LEAVING towards the middle to end of July, national training camps preparing the players for Test matches before that, and fitness regimes being implemented from June 1st by Grant Luden, it's just a non-starter, IMO.
Can you imagine any player getting injured at a 'made up' SLCT20 before the biggest 7 months in BD cricket with 5 series (Test and ODIs) being planned against Zim, WI, Eng, Pak and SL?
However, with the ZIM series as a priority in less than 40 odd days, you can work it out for yourself.

FTP (Future Tours Program) are discussing things with all boards concerned. As we know, many things change but there are 5 mini series planned (we cannot expect more for BD than modest series at this stage) - 4 in BD and the one in Zim.
