‘Bangladesh Is Not Pakistan’: Former BCCI Official Questions Mustafizur Release Call
Indian Premier League: The Board of Control for Cricket in India’s (BCCI) directive to Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to release Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman from their Indian Premier League (IPL) squad has drawn sharp criticism from a senior former board official, who termed the decision illogical and poorly timed with a major International Cricket Council (ICC) event approaching.
Speaking to IANS on condition of anonymity, the former official warned about the complications this move could create ahead of upcoming international commitments. He also said that Bangladesh is not Pakistan and should be treated differently.
“I just don’t understand what kind of decision this was. Bangladesh is not the same as Pakistan. You cannot place them in the same bracket. They are not an enemy nation. If the policy is to treat them like Pakistan, then ban them completely. Next month is the World Cup, and India is set to host Bangladesh. How will that be justified? What happened in Bangladesh was wrong, but those were mobs, and such elements exist everywhere,” the official told IANS.
