17th Match of Bangladesh Premier League has started today at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium, Chattogram. This game is played today Comilla Victorians vs Dhaka Dominators. I think Comilla Victorians is a stronger team than Dhaka Dominators. Comilla is batting now in today's match.  Victorians have scored 100 runs in 15 overs. Comilla Victorians have lost 3 wickets so far. Comilla Victorians have 5 more overs to play.

And they scored 84 in the last five overs. Did you see what Khushdil did?
WTF man?  He scored 64 runs from 24 Balls, while Rizwan scored an unbeaten 55 from 47.
Dhaka Dominators are struggling on the pitch. They lost some early wickets already. They scored 44 from nine overs and already lost three wickets. They need 141 runs in 66 balls. The match is already in Comilla Victorian's hands.

I would say that the BCCI unnecessarily delayed the launch of the WIPL by more than a decade. They had the first edition of the IPL way back in 2008. And they are launching the WIPL 15 years after that. If they had started this league sometime during the 2010s, then it would have earned a lot of fan base by now. But then, the BCCI guys were worried that any additional league would eat in to the popularity of the IPL. People are getting fed up with the repetitiveness of the IPL and that is one of the reasons why they have approved the WIPL now after such a long gap.

Atleast they are starting after a decade thats the positive thing and this will benefit all women cricketers of the world less Pakistan (as they will surely not be allowed). In recent tour of Australian women to india, there was huge crowd in stadium to watch the show. This clearly is an indication that Indians are excited about women cricket also.

Agreed, this decision should've been taken years back.15 years passed. In the meantime it is the politics that doesn't let WIPL. Right now we've got good development in the women's cricket and that means it to be the right time than getting delayed. Change of representatives too a reason for the approval and now the authorities were quite strong that IPL will stay strong amidst the existence of any premier leagues around the world.

Yeah.. better late than never. But I believe that they could have increased the number of teams to 8. The current number of participants (5) is too low I'm afraid. There is enough talent pool available within India, and then each of the franchises will be able to field 4 foreign players in their playing XI. So they could have gone with 6-8 teams. Anyway, I believe that an expansion will take place sometime in 2024-25. And although the franchises are yet to be announced, my suggestion is to give preferences to cities such as Guwahati and Indore that are not represented in the IPL.
The team count is very small. More the teams, better will be the league. Over the next edition we can expect increase in the number of teams. For now it is good for the debut season. An 8increase in the foreign players will help in the increase of teams. Rather than giving preference to limited cities it is good to conduct it all locations which will attract audiences from the whole country.

As Sylhet continued their impressive winning streak, Sylhet was the favorite in today's match against Comilla. But they were defeated due to the bad performance of the batsmen. The Sylhet team has given a target of only 134 runs. The performance of the top-order players was completely disappointing. I did not expect to see such a bad performance. As the target was very low. So the Comilla players kept the match under their control from the beginning of the innings. Liton Das played an amazing inning of 70 runs off 42 balls.
Yeah, Sylhet was the favorite against Comilla. But, they lose the match due to overconfidence in top orders. Liton das saved them from being collapsed within 100 runs. If anyone of you saw their Facebook post, They were mocking Brazil and said Mission Hexa. They lost the match and were unable to complete the Hexa mission. A lot of people post those screenshots in Facebook cricket discussion groups.
There are many matches in T20 where a strong team has lost to a much weaker team. And there was no big difference in last match, so losing was very simple. But none of the native players of Sylhet Strikers could score well. Imad Wasim and Thisara Perera as foreign players remained unbeaten. On the other hand Comilla Victorians got the win but it was very difficult for them. Litton Das' innings of 70 from 42 balls sealed the match.

Anything can happen in a T20 match. However, as the Sylhet strikers were in great form and continued to perform consistently well, this win was completely unexpected. But I was surprised by the performance of their batsmen. The performance of the top-order and middle-order players was very poor. Suddenly all the players lost rhythm together. It is very risky. If they fail to return to form in the upcoming matches, Sylhet is going to face big problems.
When domestic players are not able to contribute to the team then nothing good can be expected in the match. Sylhet Strikers' innings had no contribution from domestic players. But there was a lot of excitement in that low scoring match too. Some of the top order batsman lost their wickets early only Liton Dash made a big contribution as a player for Comilla. Due to which Comilla won the match at the end. I thought maybe this time Sylhet Strikers will be undefeated champions but after yesterday's match there is no chance.

Women prefer to watch something that have gained popularity. Within India at some point it was Sania Mirza who have been talked big for her progress as there is none to reach the position of her in India. With badminton it is Sindhu and few other players that grabbed the attention and made people follow those games. In such manner India Women's team making a remarkable performance will make more people follow it. Probably once after WIPL India will have more supporters for Women's Cricket.

@JSRAW I strongly believe that the other broadcasters missed this golden opportunity, because while the Indian cricket is dominated by males but an almost equal number of woman watch cricket too and therefore I feel that they could have reaped in solid ROI by securing this deal. Lastly if I remember correctly the rates are higher for match ticket’s in Mumbai than other cities so maybe BCCI wanted to secure more revenue’s, and thus they decided to to limit it to Mumbai only just my personal thoughts on this.
Being a woman myself, I disagree. Among my friend circle, there are only a few women who follow cricket. Currently I am residing in a tier-1 city within India and the situation will be much worse in rural areas. Among my colleagues, most of those who talk about women's cricket and players are surprisingly men. A few of my female colleagues do watch cricket, but they mostly watch the men's game. From what I have noticed, women in India are more interested in sports such as badminton and tennis. But I hope that the WIPL will change all that.
This is happening around the world with women's sports because I mostly watch sports and having never been ideal situation for the women's spectators in developed countries as well just few games having full stadiums or good number of fans otherwise mostly league games in Soccer, Basketball and Cricket of women's never been having ideal situation which is the biggest concern for the many media rights companies but here in India hopefully things could be better for the WIPL because this could be game changer and surely going to have big impact on women's sports which is already having good positive development in last few years but after the launch of this WIPL we can expect good results for many other games as well.

The 46th Match of Big Bash League has started today at Perth Stadium, Perth. The two teams participated in the game today are Perth Scorchers vs Hobart Hurricanes. Hobart Hurricanes won the toss and are now batting. They scored 39 runs in 6 overs but lost 3 wickets.  Now up to Hobart Hurricanes. Perth Scorchers started the match with great bowling. Looks like Hobart Hurricanes can score 130 runs today.
Now as we are heading for the end of this season's Big Bash League now things are looking clear with today win now Perth Scorchers are leading the league table by 18 points and Sydney Sixers having 17 points from same number of matches with most chances these two teams will stay here until end of this season Melbourne Renegades having 12 points from 11 matches and three teams are having 10 points which giving impression we will have fight for the third and fourth spot of the league table.

After winning toss HH elected to bat and able to score 147 runs which were not good target for the league leaders as they completed this chase within 17.3 overs Aaron Hardie was hero for them as he hammered 90 runs on just 63 balls, and they are able to take top spot in the league table.

I am pretty sure that Comilla Victorians will win the match. They need 18 Runs in four overs with seven wickets in hand.
Such low scoring match in a premier league won't attract cricket lovers. But, Pitches in Bangladesh are somewhat bowling-friendly.
In-fact, Mirpur is Spin bowler's paradise. This is in a different stadium. Still it's a another low scoring game. If you want to destroy batters career, Just make pitches like Mirpur.
It's true that Mirpur is a bowling friendly but I don't think it will destroy a career of a batsman. Winning sequence of sylhet is over now. They have lost for the first time in this season. Totally batting collapse from top order and 134 was easy target for Comilla. Another great performance of Liton Das and he is performing regularly.
What a great performance by Liton Das, 70 runs from only 42 balls with 166 above strike rate. Also, the other batsmen of the team did not bad on average, in my opinion, today Comilla Victorians had enough performance to chase down 134 runs. And now Comilla is the only team to beat Sylhet Strikers in this BPL season.
Comilla Victorians performed well today both on the batting and bowling side but I think even though they put up a good batting performance, the bowlers also contributed a lot to their win as their pressure kept the Sylhet strikers from scoring and on the other hand Litton's outstanding performance propelled them to victory.
And through this match, Comilla Victorians got some points and is at number four in this season of BPL, while Sylhet is still holding the top position.
There is still a long time left for the BPL tournament to finish. Some teams played 4, 5 and 6 matches in this tournament. In the tournament points table may undergo major changes. Comilla Victorians are now at the 4th spot with 2 wins from bottom of the points table. Early losses in several of matches led to negative criticism of their team. But the team has promising players to go top this season. Moreover, in the last match, Comilla Victorians beat Sylhet Strikers, who are at the top of the points table so far. According to the condition of the team i can deserve Comilla Victorians as the champion of Bangladesh Premier League 2023. This is just my prediction.

For simple one reason.

Only 2 broadcasters showed up for the bidding war and their 2 bids were 97 cr and 950 cr. This whole bidding process lasted for a maximum of 5 minutes. If there were more broadcasters lining up for media rights then the price could have been bigger.

LOL.. 97 crore for 5 years? That is less than 20 crores per year and is an insult to the Indian women's team. I am thankful to Reliance and Viacom18 for making this decent bid. I guess the second bid was from Disney Star-Zee Entertainment Enterprises Limited combined. They probably planned something similar to what happened during the ICC media rights auctions, in which Disney took the streaming rights and Zee took the TV rights. But this time they underestimated the market. And now it will be interesting to see how much money the BCCI will make by selling the 5 franchises (auction will take place on 25th January). The share from media rights to each of the franchise is estimated at somewhere between ₹25 crore and ₹30 crore and therefore the auction price will be higher than this amount.
I really don't know what disney/star were thinking. I tell you they will regret missing all OTT rights.

I hate to say or admit but in my reading, i believe BCCI not considering any profit atm. In short term (3-5 years) They are more focused on growing women's cricket and providing more profit to franchise, that's why they reduced the base price.

There wasn't much interest from the broadcasters for WIPL but still, it found the bid for 5 year contract worth close to 1000 cr INR.

Also, Mumbai is hosting the first season, ideally, it should have been all metro cities but it's fine as they are still testing the waters.
 
Why would you think a 5 year contract of 1000Cr is not good? This is the first WIPL and trust me it is way better than all others league on women cricket. I am suprised you expected more as non of the male based cricket are in level with the initial revenue generated by just suction of the media coverage. In my opinion, such investment shows the future of women cricket & women based sports in India. A long way to go with a lot of initial support. I hope women cricketers around the world recognise the potential of league cricket in india.
