Clear weather in the last 24 hours in Dhaka has allayed fears of any more delays in the BPL as the domestic T20 tournament tries to get off the ground on Tuesday. Though they might avoid further unseasonal rain, the organisers could not quite shake off another controversy, thereby continuing a theme that has dogged the tournament since its inaugural edition.This time it was the rescheduling of the tournament that caused the trouble. After the tournaments original opening-day matches, on November 4, were washed off, the BPL governing council decided to call off the four matches scheduled for November 5 and 6. They asked the four teams from the opening day to decide if they wanted to replay their abandoned matches or take a point each.At Saturdays press conference in which BPL member-secretary Ismail Haider Mallick explained the proposed changes, the BCBs vice-president Mahbubul Anam, a veteran cricket official, made it clear that the organisers couldnt actually take the one point away from the four teams. Rather, all seven teams had to agree on the replays. Rajshahi Kings and Comilla Victorians had initially expressed reluctance to replay their fixture, but later relented.While the matter seems to have been settled amicably, the governing council and the franchises have set a dangerous precedent. What if another team wants a replay when their match gets abandoned later in this tournament or in the coming years? There may well be another amicable agreement, but what if that situation has greater import in the context of the tournament?This is not the first time that the BPLs governing council has interpreted rules questionably. In 2012, one of the semi-finalists was decided at 2.45am on the morning of the match. There are still many theories - legitimate or conspiracy - about why Barisal Burners were given Chittagong Kings place despite the latter having a better head-to-head record in a three-way tie with Dhaka Gladiators. It is assumed that Barisals slightly higher run-rate was taken into account, but all of this had been calculated many hours before their dead-of-the-night announcement.The incident came during an inaugural tournament that had already been damaged by corruption allegations; it got worse in 2013 when they had to form a tribunal to investigate more corruption charges, ending with the banning of former Bangladesh captain Mohammad Ashraful and the owners of his Dhaka Gladiators team.In the 2015 edition, Sylhet Superstars fielded two players without proper paperwork in their opening game against Chittagong Vikings. It ended up in a heated exchange between the Sylhet owners and Tamim Iqbal, a case that has yet to be closed by the BCBs disciplinary committee.The tendency to tread on eggshells has been a feature of many decisions in the BPL, with the governing council or the tournaments technical committee churning out ever newer interpretations of the law. Even with a pending one-match ban on Tamim, the BPL couldnt quite take it upon themselves to implement the punishment during this tournament. They have passed the buck to the next 50-over domestic competition.The 2015-16 edition of the BPL was called a success only because it was mostly controversy-free. If thats the goal, then the governing council must ensure a clearer understanding of the tournaments playing conditions and bylaws. Otherwise, more trouble awaits over the next four weeks.

"It was definitely a very good match -- I was playing really good tennis," Radwanska said. FRISCO, Texas -- The questions came at Dak Prescott almost as fast as the numerous Philadelphia pass rushers that made the Dallas quarterback look more like a rookie than any opponent so far.How could he not have heard that owner and general manager Jerry Jones said the Cowboys should ride with Prescotts six-game winning streak, and that Tony Romo was fine with it? What did he mean he stayed off Twitter all day? How busy could he be on the players day off?Does he believe in the hot hand theory?Yeah, sure. I mean its not anything I really think of, Prescott said after silently smiling at the suggestion that his boss was such a believer. You say I had a hot hand but I definitely wasnt hot early in that last game. Ive just got to come in and just worry about getting better.Theres no indication Romo, the 10-year starter, is replacing Prescott anytime soon as he continues his recovery from a broken bone in his back. And certainly not Sunday when the Cowboys (6-1) visit Cleveland (0-8).The public glimpses of Romos daily regimen vary.One day, the 36-year-old is going hard on individual drills in practice, taking snaps, rolling out, throwing with some zip even though he isnt listed as an official participant. The next, he does enough in practice to be listed for the first time since getting hurt in a preseason game at Seattle.And then there was Wednesday. Romo wasnt on the field making throws like he had been a week earlier. He was doing conditioning work on resistance cords with one of the athletic trainers after practice. He had the DNP designation again, just as he did Friday.The way we manage this situation, every situation, is to focus on Wednesday, coach Jason Garrett said. Thats what were trying to do. Thats what Dak is trying to do, thats what everybody on our offense and throughout our team is trying to do. Tony is trying to do that as well.A few weeks after saying Romo was the No. 1 quarterback, Jones finally acknowledged on his radio show Tuesday that a change during a winning streak was risky at best.You want to be very mindful of what youve got going, which right now weve got a lot of chemistry going, Jones said. That has got to really be recognized if youre making a decision.And that leads to the obbvious question of how Romo might be taking it.ddddddddddddTony has no issue with doing whats best for the team, absolutely no issue doing whats best for the team, Jones said. When youve got it going, we know these things can be a one-in-a-lifetime opportunity for everybody involved. We look at it that way.Romo briefly appeared in the locker room Wednesday, but didnt talk to reporters. Hes been a steady presence on the sideline with a headset all season, and Prescott said theres been no change in their interaction as the winning streak has grown.And while Prescott sticks with his mantra that its Tonys team, hes had enough success to earn a qualifier. Even after three quarters against the Eagles that were probably his worst as a pro, Prescott has a 99.6 passer rating with nine touchdowns and two interceptions.The 23-year-old led a 90-yard drive to a tying score in the fourth quarter. He never let Philadelphia and fellow standout rookie Carson Wentz get the ball in overtime, leading a 75-yard march to the 29-23 win .Really, its hard for me to say its Tonys team, its my team or anybodys team, Prescott said. Its a true team and everybody is playing their part in it.Prescott said footwork was his biggest problem against the Eagles, caused in part by heavy pressure from an aggressive defense. He bounced several throws, threw an end-zone interception that ended up putting Dallas behind at halftime, and had another near-pick that probably would have cost the Cowboys the game.But the bottom line isnt changing. And if it were, Prescott wouldnt spend any more time wondering when the Cowboys were going back to their franchise guy.It never goes through my head that Ive got to do this or that this is going to happen, Prescott said. I think they will make that decision regardless of how my play is if they want to make that. I just go in and worry about these teammates.And if he needs updates, he could always start looking at Twitter again.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Schuyler Dixon on Twitter at https://twitter.com/apschuyler ' ' '
