One major announcement about the 2025 version of the tournament is that Dutch-Bangla Bank has acquired the title-sponsorship rights of the event. This is going to add a handsome sum of money to the brand value of the league because Dutch-Bangla Bank has long had its association with Bangladesh cricket. Dutch-Bangla Bank had earlier been the backer of Bangladesh’s first Test match and also a number of home series played by the national team.
This means that the association has officially stamped its name in the BPL 2025 as “Dutch-Bangla Bank BPL T20, Powered by Rocket, Co-sponsor NexusPay.” The acceptance of the mobile financial service as the powered-by of the bank, Rocket has been accepted as such and the co-sponsor is the e-wallet application that is NexusPay.
This is an increased commercial success of the tournament because the local businesses become a bigger presence in aiding the game of cricket. This will be a new chance for Dutch-Bangla Bank to be affiliated with the league that will increase the credibility of the tournament and bring in more sponsors and advertisers on the platform.
