Chittagong Kings’ logo unveiled
Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) team Chittagong Kings unveiled their team logo and introduced the team management to the press through a ceremony held in Dhaka on Friday.
The port-city franchise CEO Samir Qader Chowdhury, head-coach Khaled Mahmud and team manager Nasir Ahmed were present on the unveiling occasion.
Samir on the occasion said, “I hope the Chittagonians will hold the Chittagong Kings logo close to their hearts and support us throughout the tournament.’

After unveiling the logo a showcase of an audio visual was presented.
Model and new presenter Farhana Nisho conducted the programme, attended by host of dignitaries.
It was announced in the press conference that national-vice captain Mahmudullah will lead Chittagong Kings in the inaugural edition of the BPL. It was further announced that former Australian batsmen Dean Jones and Michael Bevan will join Chittagong Kings soon as technical director and batting coach respectively.

Afridi top prize in BPL auction
Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi was the hottest property in an auction held for the inaugural Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) Twenty20 tournament on Thursday, but English spinner Monty Panesar and former South African batsman Herschelle Gibbs failed to attract bids.
Afridi was sold to the Dhaka franchise for $700,000 after some intense bidding involving five of the six franchises for the Feb. 10-28 tournament, which is based on the successful Indian Premier League model.
The all-rounder, however, will only be available for the final two days of the opening BPL campaign as he is on national team duty against England in the United Arab Emirates.
Tournament organisers said the money would be given to the players proportionately for the matches they are available.
Quick-scoring West Indian batsman Chris Gayle, who is available from Feb. 14, was another to attract attention with Barisal paying $551,000 for him.
His compatriots Marlon Samuels and Kieron Pollard also created a stir as they were sold for $360,000 and $300,000 to Rajshahi and Dhaka franchises respectively.
A total of 111 overseas players and 80 local cricketers were put on auction with teams given a maximum budget of $2million and able to buy no more than eight overseas players.
Pakistan’s Shoaib Malik (Chittagong $150,000) West Indies’ Dwayne Bravo (Chittagong $150,000), Australia’s Brad Hodge (Barisal $140,000), Sri Lanka’s Sanath Jayasuriya (Rajshahi $110,000) and Muttiah Muralitharan (Chittagong $100,000) were among others to go for big money.
No Indian players were included in the auction.
Along with Panesar and Gibbs, New Zealand’s Scott Styris and Lou Vincent failed to attract a buyer.
Ireland’s wicketkeeper-batsman Niall O’Brien was the most expensive player from the associate nations with Khulna paying $80,000 for the batsman.
Bangladesh internationals Shakib Al Hasan, Tamim Iqbal, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mohammad Ashraful, Shahriar Nafees and Alok Kapali had been selected as icon players for six franchises and were excluded from auction.
All-rounder Nasir Hossain was the most-sought-after Bangladeshi in the auction with Khulna sealing his signature for $200,000.
India-based Game On Sports Management will run the tournament after winning the bid from the Bangladesh Cricket Board for six years for $44.33

BPL Franchise Bidding: SQ Sports bid highest to win rights of Ctg
SQ Sports paid the highest amount of money, $1.20 million, to proclaim the rights of Chittagong in the franchise bidding programme of the BPL T20 at The Dhaka Westin on Tuesday.
A minute’s silence was observed prior to the starting of the event to pay homage to Manzur Ahmed, the CEO of BCB who had passed away in the morning.
SQ Sports’ bid was not only the highest for Chittagong but also the highest of the day as nine bidders took part in the bidding for the six participating franchises.
The other five successful bidders were Alif Group who won the bid for Barisal with a bid of $1.01 million, Europa Group who bought the rights of Dhaka for $1.05 million, Orion Group who won the rights of Khulna for $1.10 million, Digital Auto Care who claimed the rights of Rajshahi for $1.07 million and Walton who bought the rights of Sylhet for $1.06 million.
The minimum floor price of the bidding process was $1 million and one company named Southern International’s bid to proclaim the rights of Barisal was declared null and void as they desired to pay $0.9 million, consequentially leaving Alif Group as the lone competitor.
Digital Auto Care and Pearl Trading bid $1.05 millions and $1 million for Chittagong respectively, but SQ Sports were far ahead in the process.
The rivalry for claiming the rights of Dhaka were not as towering as expected as Digital Auto Care and Euro Impex both dropped bids of exactly $1 million leaving Europa Group as the leaders.
Digital Auto Care left Euro Impex and Pearl Trade behind to win the rights of Rajshahi as Euro Impex bid $1.05 million and Pearl Trade was willing to pay $1.02 million.
Southern International and Pearl Trading’s respective bids of $1.03 million and $1.02 million were not enough as Orion bid $1.10 million for the rights of Khulna.
Shihab Trade and Southern International bid for Sylhet $1.03 million and $1.02 million respectively but Walton was the highest bidder.
Gazi Ashraf Hossain Lipu, chairman of the BPL T20 Governing Council, hoped to promote Bangladesh with the event.
“With the BPL T20 Bangladesh will have a new identity in the world. This is a new era of Bangladesh cricket,” said Lipu.
Ali Ahsan Mahmood, director of SQ Sports, vowed to form a strong team. “We are looking forward to forming a strong team and hope to finish as the top team,” said Mahmood.
Tanvir Qamrul Islam, director of Orion Group, said Dhaka will be the trendsetter. “We will be inserting the best possible players and add new ideas to win the matches and also provide a high level of entertainment,” said Tanvir.
Mushfiqur Rahman Mohan, the managing director of Digital Auto Care, hoped that Rajshahi will be the top team. He also introduced former national skipper Faruque Ahmed and former national opener and renowned commentator Ather Ali Khan as the advisors to Rajshahi.
BCB Directors Shafiqur Rahman Munna and Serajuuddin Md Alamgir were also present on the occasion.
