Bangladesh Cricket Board rejects false ultimatum claims, assures smooth T20 World Cup participation, and highlights ongoing cooperation with ICC amid Mustafizur Rahman IPL controversy.

BCB Collaborates with ICC Over T20 World Cup Security Concerns

BCB and ICC Focus on T20 World Cup Security

Bangladesh Cricket Board rejects false ultimatum claims, assures smooth T20 World Cup participation, and highlights ongoing cooperation with ICC amid Mustafizur Rahman IPL controversy.

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) on Wednesday said the ICC is "willing to work closely" with it to address "security concerns" around the team's participation in the T20 World Cup in India even though its demand for a change of venue has not yet been accepted.
The T20 World Cup starts on February 7 and Bangladesh are due to play their four games in Kolkata and Mumbai.
"The Bangladesh Cricket Board has received response from the ICC regarding the Board's expressed concerns over the safety and security of the Bangladesh National Cricket Team in India for the ICC T20 World Cup, including the request for relocation of the team's matches," the BCB said in a statement.
"In its communication, the ICC has reiterated its commitment to ensuring the full and uninterrupted participation of the Bangladesh team in the tournament.
"The ICC has conveyed its willingness to work closely with the BCB to address the concerns raised and has assured that the Board's inputs will be welcomed and duly considered as part of the detailed security planning for the event," it added.
Hostilities shot up between India and Bangladesh following Bangladeshi pacer Mustafizur Rahman's ouster from the IPL on BCCI's instructions. The Indian Board did not give a clear reason for the decision but it was largely attributed to the deepening diplomatic tensions between the two neighbours in the wake of attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh.
The BCCI's action prompted a livid BCB to demand that its four World Cup matches in India be shifted to co-host Sri Lanka in a written submission to the ICC. The ICC has not yet issued a public response to the BCB on this subject and a planned meeting between the two bodies on Tuesday also could not take place.
The BCB said it will continue the "constructive engagement" with the ICC and relevant event authorities in a "cooperative and professional manner". The Board also stated that it was confident of "an affable and practical solution" for the "smooth and successful" participation of the team in the T20 World Cup.
Drawn in Group C, the team is scheduled to face the West Indies in their opening match at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata and subsequently compete against defending champions England, Italy and Nepal.
 "No Ultimatum from ICC"
The BCB also rejected reports that it had been told to either participate as per the decided schedule or forfeit its games by the ICC.
"The BCB has also taken note of certain reports published in a section of the media suggesting that the Board has been issued an ultimatum in this regard.
"The BCB categorically states that such claims are completely false, unfounded and do not reflect the nature or content of the communication received from the ICC," it asserted.
Rahman was bought for Rs 9.2 crore by Kolkata Knight Riders at last year's players' auction in Abu Dhabi. After his ouster from the IPL, he was on Tuesday roped in by the Pakistan Super League even though the players' draft of that event has not yet taken place.

The ICC has reportedly denied Bangladesh Cricket Board’s request to relocate their T20 World Cup 2026 matches from India to Sri Lanka, citing security concerns, with Bangladesh refusing to travel under current conditions.

ICC rejects Bangladesh request to move T20 World Cup matches from India: Reports

The ICC has reportedly denied Bangladesh Cricket Board&rsquo;s request to relocate their T20 World Cup 2026 matches from India to Sri Lanka, citing security concerns, with Bangladesh refusing to travel under current conditions.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) has rejected the Bangladesh Cricket Board&rsquo;s (BCB) request to shift Bangladesh&rsquo;s matches from India to Sri Lanka for the upcoming ICC Men&rsquo;s T20 World Cup 2026, according to a report by ESPNcricinfo.
The report said a virtual meeting took place on Tuesday between officials of the ICC and the BCB, during which the ICC informed the Bangladesh board that its request to relocate the matches outside India on security grounds had not been accepted. The ICC reportedly conveyed that Bangladesh&rsquo;s senior men&rsquo;s national team would be required to travel to India for its scheduled fixtures or risk forfeiting points in the tournament.
However, neither the ICC nor the BCB has issued an official statement confirming the outcome of the meeting. The virtual call was arranged after the BCB wrote to the ICC on Sunday, seeking reconsideration of Bangladesh&rsquo;s match venues for the T20 World Cup 2026, citing safety concerns, ESPNcricinfo reported.
Bangladesh are scheduled to begin their T20 World Cup campaign on February 7 against two-time champions West Indies at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. They are then set to face Italy on February 9 at the same venue, followed by a match against 2022 champions England, also in Kolkata. After these fixtures, the Bangladesh team is scheduled to travel to Mumbai to play Nepal at the Wankhede Stadium. The tournament is set to open on February 7 with a match between Pakistan and the Netherlands in Colombo.
Earlier, the BCB had formally requested the ICC to move Bangladesh&rsquo;s matches to venues outside India, citing &ldquo;safety and security&rdquo; concerns for its players. In a press release, the BCB stated that it would not send the national team to India for the 2026 T20 World Cup, which is being jointly hosted by India and Sri Lanka, due to &ldquo;growing concerns regarding the safety and security of the Bangladesh contingent.&rdquo;
&ldquo;An emergency meeting of the Board of Directors of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) was held this afternoon to discuss recent developments related to the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026, scheduled to be hosted by India and Sri Lanka,&rdquo; the BCB said in its release.
&ldquo;The Board reviewed the situation in detail, taking into account developments over the last 24 hours, and expressed deep concern over the overall circumstances surrounding the participation of the Bangladesh National Team in matches scheduled to be played in India,&rdquo; it added.
&ldquo;Following a thorough assessment of the prevailing situation and the growing concerns regarding the safety and security of the Bangladesh contingent in India and considering the advice from the Bangladesh Government, the Board of Directors resolved that the Bangladesh National Team will not travel to India for the tournament under the current conditions,&rdquo; the release said.
The developments come in the backdrop of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) announcing that they had removed Bangladeshi pacer Mustafizur Rahman from their IPL 2026 squad following a directive from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
KKR&rsquo;s decision followed comments by BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia, who said the board had instructed the franchise to release the Bangladesh player &ldquo;due to the recent developments.&rdquo;
&ldquo;Due to the recent developments which are going on all across, BCCI has instructed the franchise KKR to release one of their players, Mustafizur Rahman of Bangladesh, from their squad, and BCCI has also said that if they ask for any replacement, BCCI is going to allow that replacement,&rdquo; Saikia told ANI.
The inclusion of the Bangladeshi pacer had earlier triggered political reactions in India amid reports of attacks on Hindu minorities in Bangladesh. Mustafizur Rahman was picked by the three-time IPL champions during the IPL 2026 auction in December for ₹9.20 crore.

A planned ICC–Bangladesh Cricket Board meeting on shifting Bangladesh’s T20 World Cup matches from India to Sri Lanka did not take place, amid security concerns, diplomatic tensions and uncertainty over Mustafizur Rahman’s participation.

Mustafizur Rahman joins PSL, ICC-BCB meeting delayed

A planned ICC&ndash;Bangladesh Cricket Board meeting on shifting Bangladesh&rsquo;s T20 World Cup matches from India to Sri Lanka did not take place, amid security concerns, diplomatic tensions and uncertainty over Mustafizur Rahman&rsquo;s participation.

A planned online meeting between the ICC and the Bangladesh Cricket Board to discuss the shifting of the country's T20 World Cup games from India to Sri Lanka, could not take place on Tuesday.&nbsp;
The BCCI recently asked IPL side Kolkata Knight Riders to release Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman from its squad due to "developments all around" in a vague reference to attacks on Hindus in the neighbouring country.&nbsp;
BCB then said on Monday that it does not feel secure in sending the national team to India for next month's T20 World Cup due to the deteriorating diplomatic relations.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), through its official PSL handle on 'X', announced that Mustafizur will be playing the next edition of the Pakistan Super League even though the players' auction for it is yet to be done.&nbsp;
According to Bangladesh Cricket Board sources, their president Aminul Islam Bulbul wants a written reply to an e-mail BCB has sent to ICC on their security apprehensions after BCCI decided to oust Mustafizur by instructing KKR to cancel its Rs 9.2 crore deal with the pacer.&nbsp;
BCB, in a retaliatory move, then wrote to ICC requesting for shifting of its league games in India to Sri Lanka. Bangladesh are supposed to play three games in Kolkata, including against West Indies and England, while the game against Nepal is scheduled in Mumbai.&nbsp;
The ICC's core team is working on multiple options including shifting the games to Sri Lanka but it involves a lot of logistical rejigging with just a month left for the event to start. It involves change of dates, and ticketing and broadcasting issues among others.&nbsp;
It remains to be seen whether ICC accedes to BCB's demands. Another option is to ask the BCB recce team to send its representatives to India to assess the security situation.&nbsp;
The third and last option is to remove Bangladesh from the tournament if they don't agree to play at the existing venues.&nbsp;

Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman may not get financial compensation after being released by Kolkata Knight Riders, as existing IPL insurance rules don’t cover politically driven contract terminations.

Mustafizur Rahman likely to receive no compensation after KKR release

Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman may not get financial compensation after being released by Kolkata Knight Riders, as existing IPL insurance rules don&rsquo;t cover politically driven contract terminations.

Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman is unlikely to receive any financial compensation after being released by Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on the instructions of the BCCI, despite having no role in the circumstances that led to the termination of his contract.
Mustafizur, who was bought by KKR for Rs 9.20 crore at the IPL auction following competitive bids from Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals, had to be let go in the wake of the recent atrocities on Hindus in Bangladesh, a development that prompted the Indian board to step in.
In a retaliatory move, the Bangladesh Cricket Board has demanded the shifting of their T20 World Cup games from India to Sri Lanka.
While the move has triggered debate over the player's rights, especially since he neither voluntarily pulled out of the competition nor was accused of any wrongdoing, sources say the existing insurance framework leaves little room for compensation.
"The salaries of all IPL players are insured. For foreign international players, normally the franchise pays if he is injured after joining the camp or during the course of the tournament. Normally up to 50 percent is paid from insurance. It is better for India&rsquo;s injured centrally contracted cricketers who normally get paid by the BCCI," an IPL source in the know of things told PTI on condition of anonymity.
However, Mustafizur's case does not fall under the standard insurance clauses. Since the release was not due to injury or a cricketing reason linked to participation in the league, KKR are not contractually bound to pay him any amount.
"In case of an insurance claim, this current situation isn't covered so KKR are under no official obligation to pay a penny. It is unfortunate but Mustafiz doesn't have much option but to take a legal route and that too IPL comes under Indian law jurisdiction. No overseas cricketer would want to go through this or take the Court of Arbitration of Sport (CAS) route," the source said.
The source further explained that the broader geopolitical context also acts as a deterrent. "The Indo-Bangladesh political scenario is way more fluid than Indo-Pak and it can change next year, so why would one take the risk of legal recourse," the source added.
As things stand, despite being a high-value acquisition and having no disciplinary or professional breach against him, Mustafizur appears set to walk away empty-handed, underscoring the limitations of player protection in situations driven by political and administrative considerations rather than sport.

Bangladesh suspends IPL 2026 broadcast following Mustafizur Rahman controversy

Bangladesh halts IPL 2026 telecast after KKR releases pacer Mustafizur Rahman following BCCI directive; safety concerns also raised ahead of T20 World Cup.

Bangladesh on Monday banned the broadcast of IPL's upcoming season in the wake of pacer Mustafizur Rahman's ouster from the world's biggest T20 league on BCCI instructions.
A statement from Bangladesh information and broadcast ministry stated that no "logical reason" was given by the BCCI while instructing IPL franchise Kolkata Knight Riders to release Rahman from its 2026 roster. The IPL is due to start on March 26.
The move to ban IPL broadcast came a day after Bangladesh refused to travel to India for next month's T20 World Cup and requested the International Cricket Council to shift all its league games to Sri Lanka, the co-host of the tournament.
"No logical reason for such a decision (Rahman's release) by the BCCI is known, and such a decision has saddened, hurt, and aggrieved the people of Bangladesh," read the government notification.
"In this situation, until further notice, it is requested by order to stop the broadcasting/telecasting of all matches and programs of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
"This order is issued with the approval of the proper authority and in the public interest," said the signed by assistant secretary Feroz Khan.
BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia, while announcing the diktat to release Rahman, had merely stated that it was being done because of "developments all around", without explaining the specifics.
The Indo-Bangladesh relationship has hit a rocky patch after the ouster of Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who fled to India in August last year following anti-government protests.
She was sentenced to death in absentia by a tribunal for her alleged role in a deadly crackdown during the agitation in which several students were killed.
Hindus have been targetted for violent attacks since Hasina's ouster.
