Williams to play in Dhaka League
Signed for Brothers Union after they failed to rope in Hashim Amla. The Dhaka Premier Division is the premier List A tournament in Bangladesh and right up there with the BPL in terms of importance. More important IMO since 50 overs is more prestigous than 20. Excellent pickup for the club.
In the 1990s, legends like Wasim, Jayasuriya played in the Dhaka league.

Didn't Williams get burned last time he played in Bangladesh? Thought he said he would never go back?

Well he's been picked, lets see if he shows up. DPL salaries are as high as BPL.eugene wrote:Didn't Williams get burned last time he played in Bangladesh? Thought he said he would never go back?

He went on a massive rant and claimed he would never set foot in the BD again, since then he has toured 4-5 times I believe ......
It surprises me he was picked up from memory he said some pretty bad things about the country itself if he said that about America he wouldn't get his visa stamped ......

I just remember him being pissed off about not getting his money, which is kosher.jaybro wrote:Kriterion_BD wrote:Well he's been picked, lets see if he shows up.

Re: Williams to play in Dhaka League
Hamilton Masakadza played today. Top scoring with 41, as his team got thoroughly smashed.
This is a long tournament, probably around 15 games. This should be excellent for Hami and Williams in the off-season. Plenty of subcontinent match practice, and a decent boost to the wallet.

12 teams round robin in the first round, so it is a very long tournament. Decent start from Hammy.aydee wrote:Hamilton Masakadza played today. Top scoring with 41, as his team got thoroughly smashed.

Re: Williams to play in Dhaka League
Williams has indeed shown up!
0-51 from 8 overs and his team is yet to bat.
I remember Willy once took a 7 wicket haul, which is probably the bezt figures in DPL history. Only issue was 5 of his victims were Zimbabwe players contracted for the other side!
