After being ruled out of the T20 World Cup 2026 in India, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has announced a domestic T20 tournament titled “Odommo Bangladesh” to keep national players match-ready. The move comes after Bangladesh was replaced by Scotland in the global event following a dispute with the ICC over match venues.
The three-team tournament will be held at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium, Mirpur, from February 5 to 9. Teams—Dhumketu XI, Durbar XI and Duronto XI—will be led by Litton Das, Najmul Hossain Shanto and Akbar Ali, respectively. The tournament carries a BDT 2.5 crore investment, covering prize money and participation fees.
