Mustafizur Rahman Faces IPL Pay Snub: KKR Not Obligated After Release
- •Mustafizur Rahman is unlikely to receive any compensation after KKR released him on BCCI's instructions.
- •His release stemmed from geopolitical tensions (atrocities on Hindus in Bangladesh), not cricketing reasons.
- •KKR, who bought him for Rs 9.20 crore, is not contractually obligated to pay as insurance doesn't cover this situation.
- •Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has demanded T20 World Cup games shift from India to Sri Lanka in response.
- •Legal recourse is difficult due to Indian law jurisdiction and the complex geopolitical context.
Why It Matters: Mustafizur Rahman likely loses Rs 9.20 crore IPL contract due to geopolitical events, not performance.
