    Indian Premier League: In a dramatic escalation following the release of Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman from the Indian Premier League, the Bangladesh sports ministry has instructed the country’s cricket board to request that the T20 World Cup league games be moved from India to Sri Lanka.

    Bangladesh are scheduled to play T20 World Cup matches against the West Indies on February 7, Italy on February 9, and England on February 14 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata, and against Nepal on February 17 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

    Rahman, who became the most expensive Bangladeshi player ever after Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) secured his services for Rs 9.20 crore at last month’s mini-auction, has been released from their Indian Premier League (IPL) squad following instructions from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
