Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman may have only played two matches for Sussex County Cricket Club in last season's Natwest T20 Blast, but the effervescent young pacer's effect seems to have been a lasting one.

Mark Davis, coach of Sussex County Cricket Club, wants the latest bowling sensation of Bangladesh Mustafizur Rahman to play the NatWest T20 Blast, and then remain at the club until late August to play in the Royal London One-Day Cup.
