Six matches of DPL on the opening day

The rainy season has not arrived in Bangladesh yet. That is ahead.

June-July, August is the rainy season; but this time, heavy rain has started with storms and rain at the beginning of Boishakh. It is raining at some point every day.

Dhaka Premier League (DPL), the most attractive and competitive season of cricket in the country is going to start in the face of this rain. This year’s Dhaka Premier League will start today.

Several innovations have been introduced in this year’s Dhaka Premier League.

So far, each round of the Premier League was played in 2 days. That is, 6 teams out of 12 teams played on the first day.

The remaining 6 teams played the next day. But this time, 12 teams will play in one day.

That means, 12 competing teams will take to the field every day in 6 separate fields. Games will be played on 6 fields every day.

On Monday, the matches will be played on 6 fields. The current champions Dhaka Abahani Limited will play against Dhaka Leopards.

The match will be played at the Bangladesh Sports Complex ground in Bashundhara.
