Did anyone checked the points table for ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Super League? I know it is a bit early, but South Africa and Sri Lanka remains at the rock bottom (#12 and #13 respectively). Netherlands has moved to the #9 spot, with their two wins over Ireland. The next set of matches is going to be in England, where the hosts will face Sri Lanka. A 3-0 series win for England would mean Sri Lanka remaining at the 13th spot, with England moving up to the top spot (they are in second position now).
Shakib Al Hasan is a bit furious and angry as we have seen in his previous activities. He is independent, he likes to be independent. He was given a 1-year ban, but that is not for match-fixing. He never liked match-fixing. Watching almost every fixing match in the DPL, he was probably too upset, so maybe Oman shouted. Although he did not do well. But as a result, everyone has come to know about the match-fixing of DPL. Indirectly, he has benefited Bangladesh cricket.
The incident seems to have polarized the Bangladesh cricket fans. Now everyone is divided in to two camps. A section believes that Shakib has become too arrogant and crossed the line, and want the BCB to take disciplinary action against him. Another section believes that he has been unfairly victimized and the BCB is making him a scapegoat. IMO, the truth lies somewhere in between. But I have no doubt that the one-year suspension handed out to him earlier was unfair, as he was not involved in any match fixing activity.

The Dhaka Premier League is not being held under the control of BCB. It is an independent league, and therefore the BCB has no direct control over it. So gamblers are getting easy opportunities of match fixing and lots of fixing is happening.
I have a doubt, i understand that these clubs are not under the control of BCB but we were discussing about Shakib Al Hasan getting some penalty and suspension because of his behavior and these players are contracted with BCB and if Shakib Al Hasan is playing many players who are contracted with BCB will be playing as well, so will they allow these players to breach their contract or whether they have special permission to play these games.The Dhaka Premier League is not being held under the control of BCB.

You are right. As far as I know, clubs like Abahani and Mohammedan are older than BCB. These clubs used to play only football, now they play cricket, and maybe even participate in other sports.

So gamblers are getting easy opportunities of match fixing and lots of fixing is happening.
The clubs may be quite old, but all the cricketing activity within Bangladesh comes under the purview of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB). The DPL may have enjoyed a great degree of autonomy, and may continue to do so in the near future. But if the allegations of match fixing are proven to be true, then the BCB may take away that autonomy or cancel the accreditation for the league. The latter option will destroy the competition, as the national and domestic players will be banned from taking part in any of the matches. So it will be good for them to avoid any direct confrontation with the BCB.

The head of Bangladesh cricket board said about match fixing and he wants them to stop, i did not understand the statement, if he is well aware of the match fixing issues in DFL is he reporting them to the ICC as these are serious allegation and that means we will see more suspension and bans because they are not doing their duty of reporting match fixing. I have not seen the tournament yet and with these allegations it is better to stay away from betting.
The clubs taking part in the Dhaka Premier Division Cricket League are independent clubs and not franchises. They have existed for many years, with clubs such as Brothers Union and Abahani Limited dating back to at least 5 decades. They formed the backbone of Bangladesh cricket during the old days. Now with BCB exercising more control over the cricketing structure, many of these clubs are losing their significance. And obviously some of them have resorted to match fixing and other avenues to improve their financial situation.

They are not happy with the 3-match ban on Shakib Al Hasan. But they have been happy with Shakib's behavior. Because of this, everyone will know about the corruption and match-fixing in domestic cricket. And the head of the Bangladesh Cricket Board has said that if the fixing does not stop, he will stop the DFL.
Time has come to cut down the Dhaka Premier League (DPL) to size. I don't know why the BCB is giving so much importance to a club competition in just one city. Instead they should focus their resources to improve the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL). I agree that DPL was the premier competition when Bangladesh was an associate nation. But now they have got test status and therefore need to move to a regional domestic competition, where all the major regions are represented and not just Dhaka.

Has anyone seen this news? During the match, Shakib Al Hasan got angry with the umpire and kicked the stumps. Such action during the match is very unfair and he banned for the next three matches and finned around ~$5800. But there are rumors that umpires in the DPL are involved in match-fixing so players are furious with them.
I was not aware of DPL going on when PSL resumed, i thought Shakib Al Hasan had these issues in the PSL which is conducted in the UAE and it is always a prime spot for match fixing. It looks like Shakib Al Hasan keeps on getting into trouble all the time, he is back after a one year suspension and now he is suspended for showing aggression again umpires 
. For showing frustration you get 3 match suspension and what kind of suspension you get if you slap someone out of frustration

ECB was controlling the ICC for a long time and they will be angry that they need to share the power with other countries and if cricket became popular in other countries i am not sure these power houses will be angry so that their control over the board will get slimmer. Not sure why it is hard for them to push for Olympic inclusion other than financial reasons or the lack of financial gain for the ICC by including cricket in Olympics.
In the course of time, obviously their power will get diluted. In the near future more countries will get test status and the number of board members will increase. And there is nothing that they can do about it. Furthermore, the ECB has a habit of punching above their weight. Their share and influence on the ICC revenues is not that high(unlike the case with India, which contributes to >50% of the revenues). But they have always tried to dictate the ICC policies, by forming a cabal with the BCCI, CA and CNZ. But now with the BCCI in hands of Ganguly, this plan is not working for them.

The reason once put forward by the ECB chief was that if there is a cricket tournament within the Olympics, then the popularity of the ICC world cup may get impacted. Now BCCI has changed their stance and they support the inclusion of cricket in the Olympics (one of the moves made by Ganguly after he became the BCCI head). But ECB and CA (and CNZ) remains opposed to the Olympic inclusion of cricket. Among these three boards, I would say that the ECB has been more consistent with their approach. For the last 5 decades or so, they have opposed measures to popularize cricket.

The reason might be the powerful cricket boards are not willing to send the players to the Olympics, the ODI and Test format are simply not possible but the T20 version is the perfect one to be played in the Olympics and it is over a decade we are conducting the T20 World Cup and it is time that they involve cricket in the biggest stage of all time.

The thinking from the ICC is different. For them, there is no need to make cricket more popular.

They will get the sponsors if the people gravitate towards cricket and including cricket in the Olympics is the first step and then it might take over a decade for it to attract the fans, so it is going to be a long process. The reason Indian cricket is rich with huge sponsors is because they have a huge population who follow the matches and it is a huge marketing opportunity for the sponsors and when other countries reach that level that they can also reap the same benefits.
There is a reason why the most popular sport in the world (Football) is a part of the Olympics. FIFA could easily say that the football world cup is more popular than the Olympics and therefore they don't want to participate. But they have never raised any such objections. On the other hand, they have actually encouraged teams to participate in the Olympic Games. Some of the best footballers in the world have taken part in the Olympic Games. In the end, FIFA realizes that it is an ideal opportunity to grow the sport. The thinking from the ICC is different. For them, there is no need to make cricket more popular.
