The BPL 2025 will be the 11th edition of the Bangladesh Premier League. We are still awaiting information regarding BPL 11 and in the meantime, you can scour for the information for the previous edition to get a better idea about how the tournament is played.
The BPL 10 was played between January 19 and March 1 2024. Similar to the previous edition, the BPL 10 also saw seven teams taking part in the tournament.
In 2023, Comilla Victorians defeated Sylhet Strikers and clinched the BPL title for the fourth time in the competition. The 2024 edition was won by Fortune Barishal who overcame Comilla Victorians in the final by six wickets.
The BPL draft for the 2024 season took place on September 24. It saw Fortune Barishal selecting wicket-keeper batsman Mushfiqur Rahim. Before this, Shakib Al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal had switched their teams. Though Mushfiqur’s earlier team, Sylhet Sixers, did not keep him, Tamim took the chance to bring him to Fortune Barishal.
During the draft, Rangpur Riders chose opener Rony Talukdar, while well-known players Mominul Haque and Sabbir Rahman remained unpicked. Mohammad Salahuddin, head coach of defending champions Comilla Victorians, expressed confidence in their squad and showed enthusiasm in acquiring Rahkeem Cornwall.
Additionally, several Pakistani players were drafted into BPL, and with the potential postponement of the Pakistan Super League due to upcoming elections, they might be available for a longer BPL stint.

What Happened in the Last Season of BPL?
The 2024 edition of the Bangladesh Premier League was won by Fortune Barishal who overcame the four-time winners Comilla Victorians in the final. It was Barishal’s maiden title.
Barishal finished the league stages of the competition with 14 points to end third on the table. In the Eliminator they then romped to an easy win over Chattogram Challengers with over five overs to spare.
This was followed by a six-wicket victory over Rangpur Riders in the second Qualifier that took them to the final where they met Comilla Victorians.
Comilla never looked like they had enough on the board as they were restricted to 154/6 before Barishal chased it down in 19 overs.
Comilla Victorians won the 2023 edition of the Bangladesh Premier League by defeating Sylhet Strikers in the final of the tournament. It was the fourth time they had won the competition.
The Strikers had scored 175/7 in the title decider thanks to an unbeaten 74 off the bat of Mushiqur Rahim but Johnson Charles blasted 79* to help the Victorians clinch the win in the final over.
This was after Strikers and Comilla had finished off the top two at the end of the league stage of the competition and faced off in the first Qualifier. Comilla defeated the Strikers in that game to enter the final.
Rangpur Riders edged out Fortune Barishal in the Eliminator but failed to get past Strikers’ 182/7 in the second Qualifier.
