DHAKA, 8 Sept  - Mettro express has confirmed their participation as the sixth team of hockey's franchise tournament Bangladesh Champions Trophy.

The Bangladesh Hockey Federation (BHF) Thursday announced the name of the sixth team, three days after the agreement with the sponsor organization.

Express would buy the sixth team of franchise hockey.

Six out of eight divisions of the country will participate in this franchise hockey for the first time.
