Domestic season to start with 1st div cricket in Nov

DHAKA, Oct 22, 2025 (BSS) - Bangladesh' domestic cricket season is set to start 
with the Dhaka First Division Cricket League in November, said Cricket 
Committee of Dhaka Metropolis (CCDM) Chairman Adnan Rahman Dipon.

The Second and Third Division leagues will follow soon after. 

The decision came after a CCDM meeting held today with the First Division 
clubs.
 
"We had a meeting with the First Division teams today. Almost all the clubs 
were present and showed their interest to play the league," Dipon said here 
today.

"There were some minor differences regarding the timing. The good news is 
that they are very much interested, and we'll soon announce the dates for the 
toss-up and the start of the league," he added.

The CCDM Chairman also revealed that they are mulling to run multiple 
divisions league simultaneously.

"All leagues I mean the First Division, Second Division, and Third Division 
leagues will run concurrently," he said. 

"However, Dhaka Premier League won't be included because of the Bangladesh 
Premier League (BPL), national team commitments, and the National Cricket 
League (NCL). We'll try to find a gap in the schedule to start the DPL within 
that window."
