Competitive cricket will return to the country after a gap of six months with a three-team 50-over tournament.

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) announces the competition which will feature National Team cricketers, players from the High Performance Unit and selected members of the 2020 ICC Under-19 World Cup champion squad. The event which starts from 11 October 2020, is a part of the continuing initiatives of the BCB aimed at a gradual resumption of normal cricketing activities which have been disrupted since March this year due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

The tournament is expected to provide leading and upcoming cricketers the opportunity for some quality competitive cricket in the current situation. The three teams have been named after respective captains Md Mahmud Ullah, Najmul Hossain Shanto and Tamim Iqbal khan. Each team will face each other twice with the top two on points featuring in the final on 23 October.

All the games will take place at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium, Mirpur and will be day/night. There will be reserve days for every match. To ensure health and safety standards for Covid-19, the players, support staff, match officials and relevant personnel including grounds and facilities staff will be placed in a bio-secure bubble for the tournament.
