The ninth edition of the Bangladesh Premier League is set to be played from January 5, 2023, and the tournament will go on till February 16, 2023. The draft for the upcoming edition of the league was held on Wednesday, November 23, and the event saw quite a few big players switching to other teams and some big names being included in the list of overseas players.

Shakib Al Hasan and Mustafizur Rahman, who represent the Fortune Barishal and the Comilla Victorians will continue to play for their respective franchises, whereas Nurul Hasan, Mashrafe Mortaza, Tamim Iqbal and Nurul Hasan have found themselves a new team as they now join the Rangpur Riders, Sylhet Strikers, and Khulna Tigers respectively.
