    ‘Let’s Not Get Into This’: BCCI Maintains Silence On Bangladesh Players’ IPL Participation

    By IANS News January 02, 2026 • 13:34 PM View: 487
    Indian Premier League: The BCCI on Thursday declined to comment on the participation of Bangladesh players in the Indian Premier League (IPL), with sources saying that no communication has been received from the government on the matter.

    Amid discussion over the signing of Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman at last month’s IPL auction, BCCI sources reiterated that there has been no directive from the government to prevent Bangladeshi players from taking part in the league.

    Rahman became the most expensive Bangladeshi player ever after Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) secured his services for Rs 9.20 crore at the mini-auction held last month. The signing sparked debate following reports of violent incidents against religious minorities in Bangladesh, with some questioning the pacer’s participation in IPL 2026.
