In the Daily Star, Bishwajit Roy says the crowds for the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League have been an embarrassment for the organisers. The other worry about the tournament, he says, is that the local batsmen have not been among the runs.
Only on two occasions - both involving hometown franchise, Chittagong Kings, playing at the Zohur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium - did the crowd really look like a decent one. Otherwise, despite the cut down of the ticket prices, it has been quite an embarrassment for the organisers who have only looked at each other for answers for such low interest.
