BPL resumes today

After an action-packed first round, the second round of the Bangladesh Premier League is all set to get underway on Friday following a two-week break.

Defending champions Bashundhara Kings will look to maintain their 100 per cent record as they take on newcomers Fortis FC in Rajshahi but will have to be wary of the unknown they might bring as Fortis managed to hold six-time champions Abahani to a 1-1 draw in the first round.
