Bangladesh’s two stars Shakib Al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal did not get the team despite being named in the draft of England’s one hundred ball competition ‘The Hundred’. Not only these two, the franchisees did not show interest in any of the 15 Bangladeshi cricketers named in the draft.
Shakib’s franchise league record is quite good. So there was hope, even if no one else got the team, he would get it. However, no franchise showed interest in him. Apart from Shakib, many famous international stars also did not make the team.
Among the uncapped players are Australia’s David Warner, New Zealand’s Kane Williamson, Pakistan’s Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan, England’s Jason Roy and Mark Wood.
Shakib was in the 75 thousand pound category in the draft. Tamim Iqbal and Liton Das were in the 60 thousand pound category. Taskin Ahmed and Shariful Islam were in the 50 thousand pounds category. Apart from this, the remaining 10 Bangladeshi cricketers did not have any base value mentioned.
West Indies cricketers were sold at the highest price in the draft. The first among them was Nicholas Pooran, who was bought by Northern Superchargers. London Spirit have signed Andre Russell and Shimron Hetmyer. Kieron Pollard will play for the Southern Braves and Rovman Powell will play for the Trent Rockets.
890 male and female cricketers registered for the tournament. Only 75 people got the team from there, out of which 26 are foreigners. This season will be played on July 23.
