News India Live, Digital Desk: It is said that as much as cricket is played on the field, it is also decided in closed-door meetings. According to the latest report, Mustafizur Rahman’s exclusion from IPL is not a mere coincidence. There is talk in the news circles that the ‘top brass’ (top officials) of BCCI have been very active in this matter. Now the question arises that why did this happen?
The conversation actually started a few months ago. When the IPL window arrives, boards around the world allow their players to play. But the attitude of Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has not been in coordination with BCCI for some time. Things like delay in giving NOC or recalling players mid-season made the Indian board uncomfortable.
According to reports, BCCI wants to send a clear message that if any country ignores the importance of IPL, it can have adverse effects on the players. Mustafizur, one of Bangladesh’s biggest stars, has found himself at the center of this conflict. Despite being a part of a big camp like Chennai, if he is not able to join the team, then the reason behind this is not only the busy schedule but also the wall of cricket diplomacy that has become tight between the boards of the two countries.
As a fan, this definitely hurts. We do not have to see the tug of war of the players, but their best game. But at the international level, sometimes the battle for credibility increases so much that even the best faces of the game are left out of the frame. If a quality bowler like Mustafizur does not become a part of the IPL this season, it will be a big loss not only for his fans but also for the excitement of the league.
It remains to be seen whether a middle path is found in the coming days or the magic of the silent fingers of ‘The Fizz’ will not be heard in the stadiums of IPL this time.
