\"Sanjamul1\"Sports desk: As the franchisees gear up for the fifth edition of Bangladesh Premier League, slated to be\u00a0 held in November, a complain was raised that the players are too much into the BPL instead of concentrating on ongoing fitness camp.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not true that the players are talking amongst themselves regarding the BPL tournament.Rumours were rife that the players always were talking about BPL team during their fitness session which was believed to distract them from the concentration.\u00a0 Batsman Sabbir Rahman denied the allegation, saying the complain is absolutely not true.<\/p>\n

All the players in the national team are focused on the fitness camp. The BPL is not in our mind at the moment,\u201d Sabbir said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had a fitness camp last year and that enabled us play eight to nine series over a period of ten to eleven months. So we are focused on it since we have long cricket season coming up.\u201d<\/p>\n

The franchisees started contacting to the players as the BPL is approaching. Some of the Icons had already given words to the particular franchise to play for them in the next edition.<\/p>\n

Sabbir Rahman was the most valued player of Rajshahi Kings in the last season, a team which roped in Mushfiqur Rahim this season. Sabbir said he is yet to get a team but expected he would get it before he tournament commences.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am not thinking about the BPL personally since the process of BPL doesn\u2019t start in another three months.\u201d \u201cTo be Icon of a team is a great pleasure. I didn\u2019t think it as a pressure. However I am yet to get a team but hope for the best.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
