Suddenly Shakib-Liton-Mustafiz in Dhaka
The whole Bangladesh team in Chittagong. But after the second T20, Shakib Al Hasan and Mustafizur Rahman suddenly met in Dhaka. Why did these two Tiger cricketers leave the team and come to Dhaka with one match left?
The Indian Premier League (IPL) is now the hot topic in Bangladesh's cricket community after the series win against Ireland. Of course, there are reasons for this. Three cricketers are scheduled to play in this year's IPL from Bangladesh. Along with Shakib Al Hasan, Mustafizur Rahman, Tiger opener Liton Das got the team for the first time. However, it is not yet certain when they will join the IPL as they have not received permission from the BCB.
IPL will be played from March 31. At that time, Bangladesh will play a Test against Ireland at home. And that's why Shakib-Litton is not allowed to play at the beginning of the franchise league. But recently there are rumors that BCB has already withdrawn from their decision. Bangladeshi cricketers can play from the beginning of IPL.
And yesterday (Wednesday) these three cricketers rushed to Dhaka after the second T20 match against Ireland to prepare for the IPL. They will join the party in Chittagong again on Thursday. BCB Media Manager Rabid Imam confirmed this to Dhaka Post.

It is believed that all the three cricketers have gone to complete the work of Indian visa. Meanwhile, there are rumors that it will be decided today when Shakib-Liton will catch the flight to Kolkata. In that case, there is a possibility of a meeting with the board's upper echelon. But while Shakib-Litton has hurdles to go to IPL, there is no such hurdle for Mustafiz. Because Tiger can go to IPL at the specified time as this pacer is not in red ball cricket.
The 16th IPL season is going to start tomorrow. At the same time, the last T20 match against Ireland is also tomorrow. Then the test will start from April 4.
