The governing council of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) today announced that franchises who have complied with player payment obligations last season will receive a portion of ticket sales revenue.

Shakib Al Hasan’s future in Bangladesh cricket has remained doubtful ever since he could not return to the country to play the South Africa series in what would have been his farewell Test. He was left out of the series against Afghanistan in UAE and then the series in West Indies before he was dropped from the Champions Trophy side too.

Gazi Ashraf Hossain Lipu-led selection committee has called up right-arm fast bowler Khaled Ahmed as a replacement for the upcoming tour.

"As a young kid, when you start playing cricket, you dream of playing for India, and playing Test cricket is the ultimate honour. To be named captain is a great responsibility, and I'm looking forward to the challenge."

Sai Sudharsan finds it "surreal" to be included in India's Test squad for the team's tour of England next month and is ready to bat anywhere in the line-up, the 23-year-old said.

Mustafizur Rahman overtook Shakib Al Hasan as the most successful Bangladeshi bowler in the Indian Premier League (IPL) with his three-wicket haul for the Delhi Capitals against Punjab Kings in Jaipur yesterday.

Mustafizur's 3-33 helped Delhi Capitals end the IPL on a high.
