DHAKA, Feb 1, 2026 (BSS) - The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has officially 
launched the ODOMMO Bangladesh T20 Cup 2026, a domestic tournament aimed at 
bringing together the country's best T20 players and delivering high-

With Bangladesh set to miss this year's ICC Men's T20 World Cup due to

ensure that national cricketers remain competitive and active.

The board today also announced the squads of the three participating teams - 
Dhumketu XI, Durbar XI and Duronto XI. The tournament will feature prize 
money and player fees worth a total of Tk 2.5 crore.

Bangladesh T20 captain Liton Das will lead Dhumketu XI, while Najmul Hossain 
Shanto has been named captain of Durbar XI. Akbar Ali will captain Duronto 
XI.

Mohammad Salauddin has been appointed head coach of Dhumketu XI, with 
Mohammad Ashraful serving as his assistant. Mizanur Rahman and Tushar Imran 
will be in charge of Durbar XI, while Hannan Sarkar will work as head coach 
of Duronto XI, assisted by Rajin Saleh.

All matches of the tournament will be played under floodlights at the Sher-e-
Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur.

The group-stage matches will be held on February 5, 6 and 7, with the final 
scheduled for February 9. To enhance the match-day experience, cultural 
programmes will take place each evening from 4 pm, followed by the cricket 
action starting at 6 pm.
