The Bangladesh Cricket Association in Kuwait organized the Champions League Season Four that featured 20 teams of expatriate players from Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka. Jleeb Probashi Cricket Club and B Bariya XI reached the final by defeating the other sides in the competition held at Al-Rai Cricket Ground. After winning the toss and batting first Jleeb Probashi scored 183 for nine in 20 overs and then dismissed B Bariya XI for 123 in 18.1 overs to secure the title by 60 runs according to the association’s published results.
According to Kuwait Times the subsequent prize ceremony was chaired by acting president Mohammad Sarwardy with general secretary Moazzem Hossain directing proceedings. Advisors including Moin Uddin Sarker Sumon who is also president of the Bangladesh Press Club attended alongside operational chairman Mosaroff Hossain and other officials. The event celebrated the achievements across the multi-month tournament that brought together diverse expatriate communities.
Public Authority for Civil Information figures place Kuwait’s population at 5.31 million with expatriates comprising 70 percent and Bangladeshis numbering around 333,000. This demographic scale supports the vibrant cricket scene sustained by groups such as the Bangladesh Cricket Association which runs several T20 tournaments each year. The Champions League edition just concluded adds to a busy schedule that includes the Summer League and President Cup as listed on the association website.
The association’s tournament records indicate four groups fed into quarterfinals semifinals and the November 7 2025 final with Jleeb Probashi emerging as champions under captain M. Mozam. The club maintains a roster of 22 players many of whom feature in other local competitions. Such consistent organization has helped establish cricket as a key recreational outlet for the expatriate population.
Kuwait Times noted that the final turned the ground into a focal point for fans enjoying the winter season when such matches draw large crowds. The 60-run margin highlighted the all-round strength of the winning side throughout the decisive encounter. This latest success reinforces the association’s role in promoting structured cricket events that engage players from multiple nationalities.
