The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) President Aminul Islam Bulbul reiterated his plan to start the Women's Bangladesh Premier League very soon.

He made the announcement during the BPL 12 players' auction at a local hotel in the capital.

"The BCB has a plan to start the Women's BPL very soon," Bulbul said during his speech. "You guys who own the franchise of BPL will be given the opportunity to keep the women's team alongside your men's BPL team."

He said the current franchise will get priority in taking the teams in
Women's BPL.

The BCB came up with a similar plan during the 11th edition of BPL but it eventually didn't materialize.
