The Durdanto Dhaka (Bengali: দুর্দান্ত ঢাকা) is a franchise cricket team that plays in the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL), representing the country's Dhaka Division.
The team was originally established in 2012 for the inaugural BPL season as the Dhaka Gladiators and won both the 2012 and 2013 editions of the tournament. The Gladiators were one of the teams dissolved in 2013 after the second edition. The franchise was sold to BEXIMCO Group and rebranded as Dhaka Dynamites.
For the 2015 edition of the BPL, the team were coached by former South African cricketer Mickey Arthur, and captained by Kumar Sangakkara.[1] Bangladeshi player Nasir Hossain was selected as the "icon" player of the team.[2][3]
On 16 November 2019, Jamuna Bank bought the rights to the team and renamed it to Dhaka Platoon.[4]
The team was rebranded as Minister Dhaka after changing owners ahead of the 2021–22 Bangladesh Premier League.[5]
In September 2022, Pragati Green Auto Rice Mills acquired the ownership rights of the team. However, they later lost ownership as they could not meet the financial requirements. In November 2022, Rupa Fabrics Limited acquired the ownership rights of the Dhaka team which was rebranded as Dhaka Dominators.[6] The team was renamed as Durdanto Dhaka ahead of the 2024 Bangladesh Premier League season.[7]
