Well, Finch has played before in the IPL and he did not utilize the opportunities to stamp his authority.

Players get chosen not really for their cricketing ability but more for their marketability. Who will draw in more crowds? Unfortunately, even if many of the Bangladeshi players maybe far better than many of the foreign recruits in the IPL, the natives really do not know much about our players.
Have you not seen the surprise (and disbelief) with which so many Indians react with when one tells them Shakib is a #1 world all-rounder and a match winner or Tamim is a world class batsman in his own right, not to even speak of our bushel full of mesmerizing SLAs and other spinners. And the franchise owners themselves are a microcosm of the native perceptions. It's Nasir who?
They would, unfortunately, rather see (or hire) a Tom, Dick, and Hariharan over a Tamim, Dickens, or Hasan.
We are not sexy. Not much of a marketing draw. Yet.

This might be bit unpopular idea, but except England-NZ series FTP showing open window for IPL to all other nationals. What if BCB decides to postpone this bilataral series after understanding with Zimbabwe Cricket to move it to June or afterwards and let our stars to perform in India, like Srilanka & WIndies did. Clearly we got a huge gap in internatinal calandar to adjust between end of March after Lankan series & October NZ series, IMO previous BCB head missed the trick here, kept too much busy giving preference to tour Pakistan.

^ for 2 players (Tamim/Shakib) you are saying we should postpone the series? Not to mention the fact that they probably wont' even get selected for all the games? No, eto khatir er dorkar nai. Let us focus on what's on our plate. Beside we should be utilizing the free time in between international tours to hold domestic tournaments like DPL.

BCB yet to clear Shakib, Tamim for IPL
Quote:
The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) will take a call on Shakib Al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal's participation in the Indian Premier League after discussion with the team management as the tournament clashes with Bangladesh's tour to Zimbabwe. The Zimbabwe tour commences on April 13 and ends on May 12, while the IPL is scheduled between April 3 and May 26.
Shakib and Tamim, who play for Kolkata Knight Riders and Pune Warriors respectively, will have two windows before and after the Zimbabwe tour during which they can play four matches for their franchise. However, the players need a No Objection Certificate from the board to participate in the IPL.
Kolkata Knight Riders, the franchise that Shakib represents in the IPL, remain hopeful that the player will be available for the sixth season.
"It is slightly unclear at the moment. We will have to wait and see," Venky Mysore, the Knight Riders' chief executive said.
However, he pointed out that franchises were always prepared for such scenarios. When the player signs the contract, the NOC clearly mentions that the player's availability is subject to the ICC's Future Tours Programme or any last-minute tours arranged by their country's board.
Mysore also ruled out the option of KKR seeking a replacement for Shakib in case he missed out due to the Zimbabwe tour or if he failed to recover from his shin injury.
Pune Warriors, Tamim's franchise, have also decided to monitor the situation before they make a final decision. "We are aware that he might miss a good part of the tournament. But, at the moment, we will have to just wait," a Warriors official said. The official did not rule out the team seeking a replacement for Tamim.

Even if they can't make it to Zim series due to injury then they should NOT be given NOC to play in IPL too.
Condition should be given to Tamim and Shakib that, if they want to play in IPL, they have to play against Zim series too. After the Zim series, they can play remaining matches in IPL.
