International star cricketers Eoin Morgan and JP Duminy are all set to play in the upcoming edition of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) for their respective franchises. While England limited-overs skipper Eoin Morgan has been roped in by Dhaka Dynamites, South Africa cricketer JP Duminy will play for the Rajshahi Kings.

Morgan will be playing alongside Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib al Hasan, who led the franchise to their only title in 2016. Dhaka Dynamites have failed to clinch the title in the last two editions under Shakib despite reaching the finals.

"We have signed Morgan for the upcoming edition of BPL considering his vast experience in shorter format cricket," Dynamites chief executive Obaid Nizam told Cricbuzz on Sunday. "We are expecting him to be available for the whole season."

"We have to think about it (captaincy) because you know we have Shakib with us and he is leading the side for quite some time," Nizam said.

Duminy, who will be playing for the first time in BPL, recently announced his retirement from ODI cricket following the conclusion of World Cup 2019 in England and Wales.

"Rajshahi Kings are proud to announce that South African all-rounder JP Duminy is a King now," the franchise posted on their Facebook page while announcing the signing.

"Duminy: an elegant left handed batsman, a useful spinner and a sharp fielder, has served South Africa for more than 14 years. He has a vast experience in franchise cricket and already led PSL team Islamabad United to their second title in 2018," the post added.

The 35-year-old had expressed his desire to continue playing T20 cricket for South Africa and also participate in leagues around the world.
