A dramatic last-ball boundary shattered Khulna Tigers' Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) campaign to a heartbreaking end on Thursday. Yet, head coach Talha Jubair deserves credit for guiding a team lacking star power to the penultimate hurdle, marking another chapter in the former national pacer's coaching journey. The 39-year-old spoke to The Daily Star’s Samsul Arefin Khan about why he prefers being a bowling coach, the evolution of Bangladesh’s pace bowling and more. Here are the excerpts from the interview:
A day before the blockbuster Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) final between Chittagong Kings and Fortune Barishal, Chittagong head coach Shaun Tait was asked by journalists whether he feels his opponents are the favourites in the all-important final.
Chittagong Kings pacer Khaled Ahmed has remained almost stoic in the face of personal tragedy and emerged as his team’s highest wicket-taker in the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) with 19 wickets.
Opener Parvez Hossain Emon scored a 41-ball 75 as Chittagong Kings beat Fortune Barishal by 24 runs in the last match of the league stage of Bangladesh Premier League in Mirpur on Saturday, setting up the first qualifier against the same team.
Khulna Tigers head coach Talha Zubaer on Saturday credited his local players for qualification into the playoffs of the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League T20.
Despite having started the league phase with eight wins on the trot, Rangpur lost a bit of firepower as Englishman Alex Hales left for ILT20, Pakistan’s Khushdil Shah departed for the Champions Trophy camp, while Soumya Sarkar only returned following an injury.
Chittagong Kings, Durbar Rajshahi, and Khulna Tigers will vie for the third and fourth positions in the standings.
The players’ non-payment issue in the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) is refusing to die down as on Friday Chittagong Kings admitted that they are yet to pay anything to Bangladesh cricketer Parvez Hossain Emon due to “personal reasons”.
Chittagong Kings' Naeem Islam delivered with bat and ball to help his side to a 111-run win over Durbar Rajshahi in a Bangladesh Premier League group-stage fixture in Chattogram on Monday.
