Fortune Barishal Ready for 2025 BPL with Strong Squad and Exciting Fixtures

2025 Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) is just around the corner, and the defending champions, Fortune Barishal, are all set to kick off their campaign on December 30. In the opening match of the season, Barishal will face Durbar Rajshahi, with the match scheduled for 1:30 PM in Dhaka. This is expected to be an exciting start for the tournament, as Tamim Iqbal, Mushfiqur Rahim, and Mahmudullah Riyad continue to lead the charge for Barishal.

The tournament, running from December 30 to February 7, will feature a dynamic schedule for Barishal. After the opening matches in Dhaka, the team will travel to Sylhet for three more games, followed by a brief six-day break. After that, they will move to Chattogram for another three matches, before returning to Mirpur for their final four games in the league stage.

Fortune Barishal has made some important additions to their squad for the upcoming season. Nazmul Hossain Shanto, Bangladesh’s captain in all formats, joins the squad, strengthening their batting lineup. Along with Tamim Iqbal, Mushfiqur Rahim, and Mahmudullah Riyad, Shanto will add more depth to the middle-order.

In the spin department, Rishad Hossain, a talented leg-spinner, is a notable addition to the team. He will be partnered by Taijul Islam, Tanvir Islam, and Naim Hassan. These experienced spinners will play a key role in turning conditions, especially during the middle overs.

The pace department will be led by Ebadat Hossain, with support from Ripon Mondol and Shahidul Islam. These bowlers will provide Barishal with an all-round attack.

In addition to the local stars, Barishal has a strong lineup of international players. Mohammad Nabi (Afghanistan), Kyle Mayers (West Indies), David Malan (England), Fahim Ashraf (Pakistan), James Fuller (England), Pathum Nissanka (Sri Lanka), and Nandre Burger (South Africa) will join the squad. The inclusion of Pakistani pacers Mohammad Ali and Khan Jahanbad adds extra depth to the team's bowling options.
