The Sylhet Titans’ ambitions for the twelfth edition of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) received a substantial boost following the arrival of Mohammad Amir. The veteran Pakistani left-arm seamer touched down in Dhaka late last night and immediately joined his new teammates for an intensive training session this morning. His presence has ignited a palpable sense of excitement within the squad, particularly among the local pace battery. Ebadot Hossain, a key figure in Sylhet’s domestic contingent, spoke glowingly about the “Amir factor,” noting that the former international’s arrival transforms the team’s tactical depth and provides a massive psychological lift to the younger bowlers.
According to Ebadot, the team’s expectations of Amir extend far beyond his ability to bowl at high speeds. With a career spanning over 340 T20 matches and a wicket tally approaching the 450 mark across global franchise leagues, Amir is viewed as a mentor-in-residence. The Titans are eager to tap into his vast experience, specifically his mastery of death-over execution and new-ball swing. Ebadot remarked that Amir has “more to give than to take,” suggesting that his role as a tactical sounding board will be just as vital as his performance on the pitch. The belief is that his presence will elevate the performance levels of the entire bowling unit, which now looks to be one of the most balanced in the competition.
Sylhet Titans’ Projected Pace Attack
| Player Name | Bowling Style | Key T20 Attribute |
| Mohammad Amir | Left-arm Fast-Medium | Elite Swing & Tactical Experience |
| Ebadot Hossain | Right-arm Fast | Raw Pace & Aggressive Bouncers |
| Khaled Ahmed | Right-arm Medium-Fast | Disciplined Line and Length |
| Shahidul Islam | Right-arm Medium-Fast | Variation in the Death Overs |
The franchise is also leaning into a new cultural identity this season to break their historic title drought. Adopting the regional slogan “Ebar Kintu Oijibo” (This year, it will happen), the squad has cultivated a resilient and optimistic dressing-room atmosphere. Ebadot noted that this mantra has unified the players, creating a collective conviction that the 2025/26 season represents their best chance to finally secure the elusive BPL trophy. By combining world-class overseas talent like Amir with a motivated core of local performers, Sylhet aims to translate this “positive vibe” into a dominant campaign on the field.
