The matches you are referring to werent BPL . They were not franchise based and nothing as compared to the BPL . They werent even televised IIRC . This is a full pledged T20 Tournament with everything IPL style with crazy money involved.

You cant compare international macthes to league matches . Gate/ticket Money for international matches goes to BCB , If I am not mistaken . Whereas for the BPL , it goes to the franhise owners . A good example would be , watching England play Brazil at wembely would cost me 25 pounds, where watching Chelsea playing bottom placed Balckburn rovers would cost me 50 pounds at Stamford bridge.

Pulling crowd in Bangladesh is easy . I remember a couple of years back , there was a match between Uganda U19 Team and Nepal U19 and it was house full . It was free but that tells you how passionate people are about the game . 500 taka for two matches and some live music is not pricey IMHO.
