The secret behind the sporting wicket in BPL

The behaviour of Mirpur Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium came as surprise for many in the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League (BPL).

It was not as slow and low as it used to be. The bounce is even and the ball comes to the bat nicely, giving the batters to dispatch it with ease.

Similarly, a bowler can still extract life from it if he remains disciplined. Overall it's a sporting wicket for which the players have been craving for so long.
Even though time is not ripe yet to say it changed the character radically, it's true the Sher-e-Bangla Stadium has never seen a series of 190 plus total in consecutive four matches.

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) President Faruque Ahmed said the sporting wicket is the first step to make the BPL 'different' as promised. Off the field the BPL was totally different this time than the previous editions. 

The BCB unmasked the BPL mascot for the first time which made a tour to create the type. Three concerts in three venues of the BPL were held.    —BSS
