BCB searching new owner for Chittagong Vikings

Sports Desk: Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) is searching new ownership for Chittagong Vikings as the franchise decided not to participate in the upcoming Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) scheduled to begin from December 6 this year. 

DBL Group decided to step aside from the ownership of the franchise and BCB have issued tender for interested parties who want to take over the franchise.

The Vikings were one of the original outfits in the BPL when the tournament started in 2012. Last season the side were led by Mushfiqur Rahim and if the franchise does not get a new owner, the BPL will possibly roll on with six teams for the upcoming edition.
