Rangpur Riders and Khulna Tigers have flown in some big names from overseas mere hours before their eliminator clash set to take place at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur today.

Rangpur have announced the arrivals of star West Indian all-rounder Andre Russell, Australian batter Tim David and English batter James Vince.

All three players have flown in from the UAE after finishing their stints with their respective teams in the ILT20. Russell was playing for the Abu Dhabi Khight Riders while David and Vince were playing for Gulf Giants.

Meanwhile, Khulna have brought in West Indies' batter Shimron Hetmyer and all-rounder Jason Holder, who were part of the Gulf Giants' and Abu Dhabi Knight Riders teams respectively in the ILT20.

Both Gulf Giants and Abu Dhabi Khinght Riders got eliminated from the ILT20 yesterday night.

The eliminator is set to begin at 1:30 pm.
