It will be great to have someone from England.


From FB:

Agreement Signing ceremony with Banglalion as the Platinum Sponsor of Dhaka Gladiators for this season! With CEO of Banglalion Neil Graham holding the Dhaka Gladiators Logo and Managing Director of Dhaka Gladiators Mr Shihab H Chowdhury Holding the Banglalion Logo! And all set for the Team Unveiling Ceremony at the Radisson today!

knowing DG owners.... when they say they are getting a superstar pacer... they dont mean someone like Alphanso or Nannes... DG always gets the best out of the auction list and right now a replacement for Malinga could be big

[reyme]

Wish there was no salary cap....

[fuadomar]

Mashrafee is re elected as DG captain for BPL-2.

[wktkeeper]

mash is the DG captain. great decision

[captainBD]

Wait nannes goes to sylhet? then that makes sylhet a strong side.

[roman]

Good to see that DG owners were confident enough to re elect Mash as captain. Come on Mash, you got a title to defend..

[captainBD]

dhaka jersey. Not bad but the Banglalion Wimax logo thing makes me sick. The white part should have been removed

[captainBD]

Oh wait, its this then:



way better! the wimax logo doesnt look half bad. But still, it sucks with the white background

[Hamlafan]

OK jersey not too good nor bad, Still prefer the sylhet one.

[Tiger Manc]

Hamlafan is Shamim miah? I won't believe it until he creates a poll.

Nice jersey, but the sponsor made a big way through. However why mash is a back bencher being a captain and with his bekham style hair on in the formal occasion.

[captainBD]

i just noticed ashraful in the picture. OMG!

[roman]

Looks like Ian Pont will be with DG again. Source Facebook. Don't know how authentic that is

Mr. Ian, any comment on this?

[Hamlafan]
