Bottom Line
This was the second season of the newly established twenty20 Dhaka Premier League, and fans were particularly interested in this year's event because it featured all of Bangladesh's national team players.In addition to the excitement and attraction of the DPL T20 2021 cricket competition, there was also criticism over the biased umpiring during the tournament. World-class all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan was punished once again for breaking the stamp on the field in protest at bad umpiring. However, the competition came to a successful conclusion, with the best team emerged as the tournament champion.
