News India Live, Digital Desk: If you are a fan of IPL and fast bowling, then today’s news will bring a smile on your face. Talking about star fast bowler of Bangladesh Mustafizur Rahman Which we also fondly call ‘Fizz’. The news is coming that Mustafizur can be seen playing in the 2026 IPL season.

Recently the President of Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) talked about this and made it clear that they are considering giving NOC (No Objection Certificate) to Mustafizur for IPL. Hearing this news has brought relief to all those fans who were missing Mustafizur last year.

Why did Mustafizur’s pace stop?

If you have been following, you would know that BCB was quite ‘positive’ about Mustafizur for some time. The board wanted their main fast bowler to remain injury-free and always fit for national duty. Due to this workload management, he was banned from playing in foreign leagues many times. But now the mood of the board seems to have changed.

Board’s decision changed the atmosphere

BCB President says that along with the safety of the players, they also want to take care of their future and aspirations. Allowing Mustafizur to feature in the 2026 IPL would be a great opportunity for him to again test himself against the best finishers in the world. Cricket fans know very well that when Mustafizur’s ball gets cut on the pitch, even the best batsmen of the world get dodged.

Will Dhoni’s Chennai (CSK) bet again?

The relationship between Mustafizur Rahman and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) has been very special. Under the captaincy (or guidance) of Mahendra Singh Dhoni, he showed how dangerous he could prove to be in the death overs. When he played in the yellow jersey, his slower ones used to wreak havoc on the pitch of MA Chidambaram Stadium (Chepauk). Now that there is talk of a comeback in 2026, everyone’s eyes are on which team will include him in their camp in the auction.

Preparation and expectations

A big platform like IPL gives new confidence to every player. This will also be a golden opportunity for Mustafizur to ensure his preparation for the T20 matches of 2026. Indian fans are also excited to see him because his bowling style is quite different and has a desi flavour.

Now it remains to be seen what effect this coordination between Bangladeshi board and Mustafizur brings in the upcoming tournaments. One thing is for sure, if Fizz is on the field, entertainment is guaranteed!
