Bangladesh to organise Women's T20 in May

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has taken an initiative to organise a women's T20 tournament in May.

The initiative is aimed at providing competitive opportunities for first-division women cricketers and maintaining continuity in domestic cricket.

The tournament, titled the BCB Women's Cup T20, is scheduled to be held from May 5 to May 14, featuring a total of 112 cricketers from the first division.

Each team will consist of 14 players. All participating cricketers will receive an honorarium of Taka 25,000, along with a daily allowance of Taka 800 throughout the tournament.

The teams were finalized through a players' draft held on Tuesday, ensuring a balanced distribution of players across all sides.
