After eight years of creating a huge fan base in Tamil Nadu and making Chennai his home away from home, there had been big speculation over where MS Dhoni would move next in the Indian Premier League (IPL), following the Supreme Court-ordered suspension of his longtime franchise Chennai Super Kings. While that speculation hasn't really ended, New Rising ­ the Pune franchise bought by the RP-Sanjiv Goenka Group on Tuesday ­ are now technically eligible to have the first go at Dhoni when the BCCI conducts a player draft on December 15. The draft system, being put in place to allow the two new franchises to be on par with the existing six franchises before the main player auction takes place on February 6 next year, will allow New Rising and Intex to pick five players each from a pool of 50 cricketers who are available following the suspension of Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals. The likes of Dhoni, Suresh Raina, Ajinkya Rahane, Ravindra Jadeja, Shane Watson, Brendo...

Hafeez turns down BPL due to Mohd Amir's presence Pakistan's senior batsman- Mohammad Hafeez has turned down a lucrative offer from Chittagong Vikings to play in the Bangladesh Premier League since the franchise had also signed tainted young pacer Mohammad Amir.

Qualification History Affiliated to FIFA in 1976, Bangladesh have taken part in every FIFA World Cup™ qualifying competition since 1986 only to fail to progress to the latter stages. However, they have proved capable of springing a surprise or two, a fact borne out when they eliminated Pakistan 3-0 on aggregate to reach the next round on the road to Brazil 2014. The Team The current squad consists of mainly home-based players with a dozen or so hailing from two-time Bangladesh Premier League champions Sheikh Jamal Dhanmondi. Captaining the  Bengal Tigers  is experienced midfielder Mamunul Islam, who plies his trade with India's Atletico de Kolkata on loan.
