Tensions between India and Bangladesh have taken a new turn. The controversy escalated after Mustafizur Rahman was dropped from the IPL. While the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has demanded a change in the T20 World Cup schedule, the interim government there has banned the broadcast of the IPL. Now, Mustafizur's teammate Nurul Hasan Sohan has revealed how Mustafizur reacted after the IPL incident. The BCB has written to the ICC demanding that their matches in India be shifted elsewhere. They were scheduled to play four league-round matches in India during the T20 World Cup.
Mustafizur was bought for 9.20 crore.
Mustafizur was bought by the Kolkata Knight Riders for Rs 9.20 crore in the auction. Later, on the orders of the BCCI and due to political tensions regarding minorities in Bangladesh, KKR released him. However, media reports now claim that Mustafizur handled it very calmly and won everyone's hearts with his performance on the field. Mustafizur, who represents Rangpur Riders in the Bangladesh Premier League, bowled brilliantly and played a crucial role in the Riders' five-run victory against Dhaka Capitals in Sylhet with his lethal bowling.
Rangpur captain reveals reaction.
Rangpur captain Nurul Hasan Sohan said after the match that despite this unfortunate news, Mustafizur remained calm on the field and performed with a calm mind and complete focus. Sohan praised Mustafizur highly. He said, "Mustafiz is a world-class bowler for us. He has been proving himself for a long time. Everyone has faith in him. There is nothing more to say about him. Everyone is always happy with his bowling."
'Always focused on giving his best.'
Sohan said, "He is relaxed and calm at the moment. He must have been disappointed with the KKR incident." He deserves everything he has achieved now, and he deserved even more before, but I think he's doing just fine. To be honest, I don't follow social media much. I don't know what's going on or happening outside. Yes, people were talking about it. Mustafizur must have felt bad, too. He has always focused on giving his best for Bangladesh. I think he's calm and composed.'
Mustafizur's reaction
After the match, Mustafizur also posted on his social media handle X and wrote, "Felt good to perform when it was needed. Happy to have played a role in the win. Now looking forward to new challenges." Chasing a target of 156 runs, the Dhaka Capitals team was in a strong position. They needed 10 runs in the last over with six wickets remaining. Mohammad Mithun, who had scored a half-century, and the big-hitting Sabbir Rahman were at the crease.
Mustafizur snatched the victory.
Victory was within reach, but then Mustafizur bowled the last over, conceding only four runs. Rangpur Riders snatched victory from the jaws of defeat in a thrilling manner. Mustafizur gave away 23 runs in four overs and took one wicket. With this win, the Rangpur team moved to second place in the points table. Mustafizur also created history with this performance. He became the fastest bowler in the world to take 400 T20 wickets. He achieved this feat by taking three wickets against the Sylhet Titans.
