b. Local economy will improve, by local hotels, Inns and eateries getting more business. As well as other businesses, bookstore, gift shops, museums, historical sites getting more visits by the game watchers who are coming to the those towns mainly for the matches.

BUT, it is too much to ask of BCB to generate that kind of thought process and take that kind of basic initiatives. Because to many, it is too much 'WORK'.
BCB is spending it's money on funding tours of BCB officials who have absolutely nothing to do abroad.

Do you know that even senior officials from Australia SA WI India don't tour other countries but all Bangladeshi officials are at the stadium even in Champions trophy.

Like u said it's a great thing not only for cricket but so much.

BCB should stop giving BS reasons for not hosting elsewhere. You can host matches there and you can do it with good profit. Don't give the average people lame excuses

It makes my Blood boil to see Mohammad isam talk about how BCB is developing talent and how we have improved.

Improved?

We are no7 in ODIs
9 in Tests
10 in ODIs.

We are minnows of the game but BCB thinks we have talent to replace Shakib Mashrafe Tamim.

We don't have anyone half as good as Tamim as an opener. No pacer has Mash's accuracy and ability to swing and Shakib. Shakib is the best spin bowling allrounder of the modern era, finding his replacement is not easy
