Beximco to sponsor Bangladesh team for cricket Worl Cup

MUMBAI: The Beximco Group is the official sponsor of the Bangladesh cricket team for the upcoming ICC Cricket World Cup.

Earlier Grameenphone was the sponsor but pulled out due to a conflict of interest with an ICC sponsor, Reliance Commmunications.

Beximco was the only bidder and will pay the floor price of Taka 35 million.

Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) CEO Manzur Ahmed said, “Only Beximco took part in the bidding process. There was no scope for negotiation. This is the highest amount we got from team sponsorship. This amount is for the six first round matches and the sum will be increased on a pro rata basis if Bangladesh progresses in the tournament.”
