He additionally mentioned the ICC ought to step in to make sure there are laws in place in relation to players participating in multiple tournaments in the identical window.

"We [Bangladesh] don't have a proper T20 tournament," Hathurusinghe instructed ESPNcricinfo. "This sounds very odd. When I am watching the BPL, I sometimes turn off the TV. Some players are not even of the [required] class. I have a big issue with the current system. The ICC need to step in. There has to be some regulations. A player is playing one tournament and then he is playing another tournament. It is like a circus. Players will talk about opportunities, but that's not right. People will lose interest. I have lost interest."

Hathurusingha mentioned that the Bangladesh gamers have to be given central roles within the BPL.

"We need to have a tournament where our players can do things like batting in the top three... Bangladesh bowlers bowling in the death," he mentioned. "Where will we learn these things otherwise? We have only one tournament."

This season Chattogram Challengers, Sylhet Strikers and Durdanto Dhaka have relied on abroad gamers for his or her prime three, whereas Comilla Victorians, Khulna Tigers and Rangpur Riders have used extra native gamers.

When it involves bowling, Comilla, for instance, have 12 bowlers of their squad. At the loss of life, they've used eight abroad bowlers. Khulna and Dhaka too have relied extra on abroad bowlers throughout this era. Chattogram, Rangpur, Barishal and Sylhet have used extra native bowlers.

Khulna referred to as up Jon-Russ Jaggesar, a 37-year-old offspinner from Trinidad and Tobago, whose final aggressive sport earlier than the BPL look was in September 2022. Khulna had spinners Nasum Ahmed, Arif Ahmed and Habibur Rahman of their squad. Left-arm spinners Taijul Islam and Rakibul Hasan performed 5 and two matches respectively for Barishal, who obtained Keshav Maharaj after he was finished with the SA20 stint.

Hathurusinghe mentioned the BCB ought to organise a separate event just for native gamers earlier than the BPL so they may get extra T20 expertise.

"My suggestion is that we have another tournament before the BPL," he mentioned. "The franchises do what they want. Some of the best players are not playing. Then how do you expect the Bangladesh team to be up with the other teams? I am fighting a steep battle."
