Default BPL still behind in players' payments - CWAB Survey

Quote:

Specifics of the CWAB survey
  • According to the survey to which 70 out of the 80-odd local BPL players answered to, four Barisal Burners players - Iftekhar Nayeem, Jubair Ahmed, Alamin Hossain and Mahmudul Hasan - have not received any payments while six others have been paid between 15% to 25%. The survey was conducted in the last 20 days, and updated after the Bangladesh players returned from Colombo on April 2. But CWAB could not extract the information out of Shakib Al Hasan, Tamim Iqbal and Mushfiqur Rahim.
  • Out of the seven players interviewed from Sylhet Royals, six have been paid 25%. From champions Dhaka Gladiators, eight players including Mohammad Ashraful and Mashrafe Mortaza have been paid the same amount, as have been ten Rangpur Riders players including Nasir Hossain. The survey also mentioned that Murad Khan has played three matches without signing a contract while Saju Dutta has not been paid any money.
  • Four players from Chittagong Kings - Mahmudullah, Aftab Ahmed, Marshall Ayub, Mehrab Hossain jnr - have received 25% while the rest of the interviewed players have either not received pay or paid 10% (Nurul Hasan).



It aint just delay, I'm sensing a big haphazard payments otw here with those direct franchisee-player money dealings as well. As usual another BPL payment drama plotting here. Few points from CI report-
Quote:
  • only two out of seven BPL franchises have been paid 50% of their fees for the 2013 tournament.
  • Seven players from Duronto Rajshahi, and eight from Khulna Royal Bengals, have been given 50% of their pay, but other franchises have made haphazard payments.
  • number of players have not been paid their daily allowances but the BCB had not taken any steps to address that since being handed the list two weeks ago.
  • BPL governing council secretary Ismail Haider Mallick claims, "around 70% of the names mentioned on the list are players who have taken direct payment. They have broken the rules [stated in their contract] and [as a result] we are not liable."
  • Mallick said: "The players are claiming pay for their full amount, but those who have been quoted at more than their ceiling price, the extra amount is supposed to be distributed accordingly to the BCB (60%), Game On Sports (10%), and then the players (30%)."
