BPL payments still an issue

At least 45 Bangladeshi cricketers who participated in the second edition of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) T20 are yet to receive 50 per cent of their payment, which according to the tournament bylaws was supposed to be paid before the end of the tournament.
The information was revealed by the Cricketers Welfare Association of Bangladesh (CWAB) and based on a survey they conducted on 73 players. According to a CWAB press release, 32 players received 25 per cent of their payment, four received a sum below 20 per cent while eight did not receive any payment at all. The survey furthers states that 15 players who played for Khulna Royal Bengals and Duronto Rajshahi received 50 per cent of their payment. The remaining twelve cricketers could not be contacted.
The players who received 25 per cent of their payments include Mohammad Ashraful, Mashrafe Bin Mortaza, Abdur Razzak, Nasir Hossain, Shohag Gazi and Mominul Haque. Former national player Alok Kapali and Elias Sunny have received 15 per cent of their payments, while Naeem Islam, Rubel Hossain and Enamul Haque Jr belong to the group of players who have not received any money as yet.
The likes of Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim and Tamim Iqbal could not be contacted.
The CWAB in their press release stated: “CWAB had submitted the survey to the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) but did not find an improvement in the case. The association is disappointed.”
When contacted, member-secretary of the BPL IH Mallick said, “There are three things to consider here. Many players took direct payments from their clubs and we don't have their accounts. And there are a number of franchises who are not paying. We set deadlines and if it still does not work out we will sit with them and fix the problem. The players have to be paid.”
He also claimed that some of the players calculated their dues in an incorrect manner. “For instance if the cut-off bidding value of a player was 20,000 dollars and he was sold for 67,000 after a re-bid, then he is going to receive 30 per cent of the 47,000 dollars after six months of the BPL. This was already mentioned,” Mallick explained.
