Kolkata Knight Riders: Former Bangladesh captain Mohammad Ashraful revealed that pacer Mustafizur Rahman is unfazed by the recent developments surrounding his release from the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) franchise in the Indian Premier League (IPL). The fast bowler was released from KKR’s squad following a directive from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) due to the tense situation between the two nations.
Now, Ashraful, who is the assistant coach of Rangpur Riders in the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League (BPL), said that Mustafizur isn’t much bothered by the IPL’s decision to release him, and is currently focused on his BPL assignment with the Riders.
"He (Mustafizur) is completely chill. He is not worried at all about all the off-field talk - whether it's BCB, India, BPL or ICC," Ashraful told reporters after the Riders’ game against Chattogram Royals.
