Mustafizur Granted NOC for IPL After Playing One Match in UAE

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB), following a decision by its Cricket Operations department, has granted a No Objection Certificate (NOC) to national pacer Mustafizur Rahman to participate in the ongoing 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) from May 18 to May 24.

Mustafizur will be available for Bangladesh’s opening T20 international against the UAE on May 17 in Sharjah but will miss the second match of the series on May 19. He is set to join the Delhi Capitals after their first match following the IPL’s resumption and will be available for their final two group-stage fixtures.

If Delhi Capitals qualify for the IPL playoffs and either the Bangladesh team or Mustafizur himself does not travel to Pakistan for the upcoming five-match series, the left-arm pacer could be available for additional matches with the franchise.
