Mustafizur Rahman came up with his most economic spell ever in T20Is in his return to the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur, setting the stage for a seven-wicket win for Bangladesh over Pakistan in the first of three T20Is. However, after the game, varying opinions on the pitch grabbed more attention.

Bangladesh are unlikely to get the services of pacer Taskin Ahmed in the limited-over part of their upcoming full tour of Sri Lanka, as according to a Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) physician, the board will only review his case after this month.

Gazi Ashraf Hossain Lipu-led selection committee has called up right-arm fast bowler Khaled Ahmed as a replacement for the upcoming tour.

Mustafizur Rahman overtook Shakib Al Hasan as the most successful Bangladeshi bowler in the Indian Premier League (IPL) with his three-wicket haul for the Delhi Capitals against Punjab Kings in Jaipur yesterday.

Gujarat's victory also ensured a spot in the play-offs for Royal Challengers Bengaluru as well as Punjab Kings, who earlier in the day won their match against Rajasthan Royals.

Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman was named in the Delhi Capitals’ playing XI for their Indian Premier League (IPL) clash against Gujarat Titans at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Sunday.

Mustafizur, who was signed for the remainder of the IPL season by Delhi for INR 6 crore, had asked the BCB for NOC for Delhi’s last three league matches. 

Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) CEO Nizamuddin Chowdhury said that the board is unaware of Mustafizur Rahman’s call-up to the Indian Premier League. 

Bangladesh left-arm pacer, who went unsold in the IPL auction earlier this year, finds himself back in the league following unforeseen changes in team compositions due to the ongoing India-Pakistan conflict.

Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman burst onto the scenes with his first season in the Indian Premier League (IPL) in 2016 for Sunrisers Hyderabad, where the management found a way to communicate with the bowler despite the language barrier.

According to sources close to Bangladesh Mustafizur Rahman and Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB), an old shoulder injury has resurfaced for the left-arm pacer who had been on a break since playing the Champions Trophy.

Bangladesh’s star pacer Mustafizur Rahman is suffering from a shoulder injury and is awaiting permission from BCB’s medical department to play in the DPL.

Two Bangladesh stars -- Liton Das and Mustafizur Rahman -- have not signed with any clubs for the upcoming Dhaka Premier League (DPL), and the latter may not play the league at all this season.

Bangladesh's obvious fears going into global events were well outlined in chairman of selection panel Gazi Ashraf Hossain Lipu's press conference during the announcement of the Champions Trophy squad on Sunday. Flat wickets or even sporting tracks, as are observed in global ICC events, have more often than not found Bangladesh wanting.

The PSL draft is scheduled to take place on January 11 next year.

The left-arm pacer, who opted out from West Indies ODIs citing family reasons, announced the news on social media.

In his take about why Bangladesh players got snubbed in the Indian Premier League auction earlier this week, Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) director Nazmul Abedeen Fahim underlined that quality and the ability to perform would take precedence in franchises picking players.

Mustafizur was the only Bangladesh cricketer to get picked in the last edition's auction. He played nine matches for the Chennai Super Kings, taking 14 wickets at an economy rate of 9.26.

For over two decades, Shakib Khan has been a leading figure in the Dhallywood film industry. Recently, he has ventured into the world of cricket through his business enterprise, Remark-Herlan, which has acquired a Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) franchise named Dhaka Capitals. 

Bangladesh pace sensation Nahid Rana and 11 others from the country were named in the final auction list of the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League, starting next year.
