Mustafizur Rahman: In the IPL 2026 Mini Auction, Shahrukh Khan-owned KKR had included Bangladesh fast bowler Mustafizur Rahman in its team by paying a huge amount of Rs 9.2 crore. KKR (Kolkata Knight Riders) needed a fast bowler who was adept at taking wickets and KKR fulfilled it in the form of Mustafizur Rahman.
However, after strong opposition from Bangladesh and Mustafizur Rahman in India, BCCI directed KKR to release Mustafizur Rahman, the reason behind this was the atrocities on Hindus in Bangladesh.
When Mustafizur Rahman was released by KKR, this Bangladeshi fast bowler suffered a loss of Rs 9.2 crore. After this, Mustafizur Rahman had a chance to take action against KKR and BCCI, but Mustafizur Rahman, showing big heart for KKR and India, refused to take any action.
Cricketers Welfare Association of Bangladesh President Mohammad Mithun has recently revealed that Mustafizur Rahman has refused to take any action against KKR. Mohammad Mithun said that
After this news came out, Mustafizur Rahman is being praised a lot on social media. KKR fans are praising Mustafizur Rahman and calling him a great cricketer.
After Mustafizur Rahman was banned from IPL 2026, Bangladesh Cricket Board has refused to come and play cricket in India. Bangladesh Cricket Board told ICC that its players are in danger to their lives in India, hence our match should be shifted to Sri Lanka instead of India.
However, ICC has made it clear to Bangladesh Cricket Board that the venues of their matches will not be changed. Whereas Bangladesh is still adamant on its point. Along with this, ICC has also made it clear that the venues of the matches will not be changed.
