We first need to make the League in itself a success and then focus on how to leverage it to the benefit of the national team after it is stable.

We try doing the opposite with NCL each year and it just doesn't work.

But it's not like the teams are forced to play 5 INT players. If they thought the young BD players are good enough to win them games, they would start all of them.

BPL is first and foremost for entertainment and money (just like any other PLs). This is not a talent hunt program or a academy to groom young talents. This is a T20 league for crying out loud!

I am glad BPL was less self-centered unlike IPL.
