'They Deserve Fair Compensation: Tamim Iqbal-led BCB Announces Pay Hike For Men & Women Domestic Players
Dhaka Premier Division Cricket League: Former captain and Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) chief Tamim Iqbal reflected on the decision to substantially increase domestic match fees and salaries of men and women cricketers, saying players had long been “highly underpaid” and warranted better financial acknowledgement.
This decision marks the first move by the Tamim-led ad hoc committee, which began its work earlier this week, providing much-needed relief to Bangladesh’s domestic cricketers, especially in the women’s league.
Although there was a hike, Tamim recognised that the updated figures represent only progress in the right direction. “This may not be ideal, but it is certainly an improvement, considering there are limits to how much can be increased at once,” he told ESPNCricinfo.
