BCCI has taken an important decision amid demands to remove Bangladesh fast bowler Mustafizur Rahman from Kolkata Knight Riders and IPL 2026. BCCI Secretary Devjit Saikia announced that the board has ordered the release of Mustafizur Rahman from Shah Rukh Khan-owned IPL franchise, KKR. After the violence against Hindus in Bangladesh, several organizations in India demanded that Mustafizur Rahman be barred from the upcoming IPL season and removed from the KKR team.
BCCI Secretary Devjit Saikia said in a statement, ‘In view of the recent developments, the BCCI has directed the franchise KKR to release Bangladesh player Mustafizur Rahman from their squad and also said that if they demand a replacement, the BCCI will allow the replacement.’
Mustafizur Rahman will be out of IPL 2026…
This BCCI decision is a big blow for Kolkata Knight Riders. Mustafizur Rahman was bought by KKR for ₹9.20 crore (₹9.20 crore). The team has given him such a huge amount considering him as the match winner. However, the team will no longer be able to use his services in the upcoming season. Mustafizur is an experienced bowler, especially his excellent death-over bowling, which could have proved beneficial for KKR. The left-arm fast bowler from Bangladesh has previously played for several franchises in the IPL and has impressed with his variations and impressive performances under pressure.
