The Bangladesh Cricket Board responded to the BCCI's ruling by requesting in writing that the ICC move its T20 World Cup matches from India to Sri Lanka.
Mustafizur Rahman’s exit from IPL 2026 was decided at the top level of the BCCI without internal discussions, a report claims. This move has triggered strong reactions in Bangladesh, with the country banning the telecast of the Indian league and urging ICC to shift their T20 World Cup 2026 matches to a neutral nation.
Notably, Sikandar Raza didn't take part in the IPL 2026 auction after going unsold in the 2025 auction. The 39-year-old has played for Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the 2023 and 2024 seasons, scoring 182 runs in nine games, including one half-century. He bagged three wickets in seven innings at an economy rate of 10.07.
Mustafizur Rahman’s sudden IPL exit has taken a new turn, with a report claiming the call was made at the highest level within the BCCI.
Bangladesh has ordered an indefinite halt to IPL telecast in the country, a move linked to Kolkata Knight Riders releasing Mustafizur Rahman after the BCCI direction. The dispute has also spilled into ICC planning, with Bangladesh asking for its T20 World Cup fixtures to be shifted out of India to Sri Lanka.
The Rajasthan Royals (RR) were involved in one of the biggest trades in IPL history ahead of the 2026 auction.
