Default clubs in quest of foreign cricketers

I found the following article on New Age interesting regarding foreign players playing in Dhaka. As I grew up in Dhaka, I have seem players mostly from Sri Lanka and Pakistani playing in Dhaka. But the assortment mentioned in this article is quite entertaining. Some of the names are Heath Streak, Chris Cairns, Grant Flower etc.

I think such names hsould bring about a decent crowd in Dhaka. Now, would it be too hard to bring some of the teams (clubs) invited to the Dhaka league. In the 80's Bangladesh Football Federation used to arrange torunaments like President's Gold Cub, Aga Khan Gold and bring foreign teams to play. Is that such a hard thing to bring English County teams, Australians, or even Indian or Pakistani teams to play in the league. I think the board should look into creative solutions.
