The Bangladesh Cricket Board has accepted an offer of approximately $51million from Indian firm Game On Sports Management for six editions of a Twenty20 competition, the BCB said on Monday. The Indian Premier League-style Twenty20 tournament, named the Bangladesh Premier League, will be launched in February with six franchises. The BCB picked Game On from three Indians firms who had submitted a financial offer to run the competition last month. The offer from Game On is $10million more than the next best offer from Solutionz Unlimited, BCB spokesman Jalal Yunus said.
