Controversies

[edit]

The overseas players ofDurbar Rajshahidid not take the field againstRangpur Riderson 26 January 2025 due to non-payment of dues.[25][26]Judging the condition, BCB overturned the rule requiring a minimum of two foreign players in the playing XI and granted permission to Durbar Rajshahi to field a team comprising 11 local players for one match.[27][28]However, they won the match without any overseas players.[29]

There was also a payment-related issue withChittagong Kings,as some player's cheques were bounced back several times. However, their owner acknowledged the issue, stating that he was withholding payment due to lack of self-satisfaction.[30][31]
