IPL Snub Costs Mustafizur Rahman Rs 9.2 Cr; KKR Refuses Compensation

  • Mustafizur Rahman will not receive Rs 9.2 crore from Kolkata Knight Riders after being excluded from IPL 2026.
  • BCCI directed KKR to snub Rahman, citing "developments all around" and "Hindus being killed in Bangladesh."
  • KKR is not obligated to compensate Rahman as his exclusion is not due to injury or disciplinary issues, falling outside typical insurance.
  • Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) withdrew Rahman's No Objection Certificate (NOC) and requested T20 World Cup games be moved from India to Sri Lanka.
  • Rahman faces a significant financial loss with limited legal recourse due to the geopolitical situation and Indian law jurisdiction.

Why It Matters: Mustafizur Rahman faces a Rs 9.2 Cr loss from IPL exclusion, with no compensation from KKR due to geopolitical reasons.
