Dark clouds loom over Bangladesh's upcoming tour of India after players of the  national team called for a press conference in Dhaka to announced that they will not take part in any cricketing activities unless a 11-point demand made to the cricket board is met.


Senior players like Shakib Al Hasan, Mahmudullah, Mushfiqur Rahim were all present at the press conference and made a strong case for their demands put in front of the board.

"We just came to know about it we will discuss it in the board and try to resolve it as soon as possible," BCB CEO Nizamudin Chowdhury said. "I don't think it is anything like revolt. They are yet to tell us anything formally, but we are looking into the matter."

The following are some of the major demands of the players to the board:

- Dhaka Premier League, the premier domestic tournament in Bangladesh, should not have salary cap

- BPL should be conducted in franchise-style instead of the revised BBL-type format. Recently the board had decided to do away with the franchise-based format after a fallout with the franchises, and turn to the Big Bash League model.

The 'Bangla Tigers' are scheduled to play three T20Is and two Tests in India in November. The T20I series will start on November 3 in Delhi. Rajkot and Nagpur will host the next two encounters on November 7 and 10 respectively. The Test series will start from November 14 in Indore.
