Bangladesh's star batter Mushfiqur Rahim has hinted that he was forced to retire from T20I format. The 36-year-old veteran had retired from T20Is on September 4, 2022 following the Asia Cup in UAE, just ahead of the T20 World Cup in Australia that year.

Bangladesh stalwart Mushfiqur Rahim was excited to have reached the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) final with Fortune Barishal, a side that had been given the tag of the 'team of elderlies' prior to the tournament.

Fortune Barishal batter Mushfiqur Rahim was baffled at the instances when his skipper Tamim Iqbal and Rangpur Riders' star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan got booed by their respective fans during several matches in the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League. 

Mushfiqur Rahim becomes the second batter to pass the landmark score of three thousand runs in the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) as the wicketkeeper-batter achieved the milestone while playing for Fortune Barishal in their game against Comilla Victorians at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur on Tuesday.

Bangladesh cricket Mushfiqur Rahim has served a legal notice to Ekattor TV in relation to fixing claims made in a report after Mushfiqur was given out for ‘obstructing the field’ during the ongoing second Test between Bangladesh and New Zealand.

Bangladesh's Mushfiqur Rahim became only the second batsman in Test history to be dismissed for obstructing the field in the second match against New Zealand in Dhaka on Wednesday.

“Welcome to the very exclusive Handled ball club @mushfiqur15.. only proper players are members,” Vaughan wrote in his post

“A cricketer who has played over 80 Tests, should know he can’t do that,” Tamim said in the commentary box.

The incident occurred in the 41st over of the innings

The Bangladesh cricket team had a long meeting yesterday regarding their batting and bowling display in the first Test against New Zealand. Head coach Chandika Hathurusingha believes they were guarded against complacency creeping in and senior players such as Mushfiqur Rahim and Mominul Haque had talked emotionally in the dressing room to send a message to the rest of the team.

Bangladesh batter Mushfiqur Rahim left the nets after suffering a blow on his hand while batting in a training session at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Sunday.

While top teams, especially the ones who have been successful in this World Cup so far, seem to have proper clarity over their game plan, Bangladesh have looked drab and confused in formulating strategies in the mega event in India.

An attacking brand of cricket has been the name of the game in the ongoing ICC World Cup. India, with the aggressive batting-approach have led the way so far but for Bangladesh, however, the scenario is quite the opposite.

When Mushfiqur Rahim hit the winning boundary to upset India in the 2007 World Cup in the Caribbeans, people had already gotten a glimpse of the talents who would lead Bangladesh cricket in the coming years.

Bangladesh’s Mr. Dependable Mushfiqur Rahim has been picked by Fortune Barishal following the first round’s call from BPL’s local players’ draft for the season 2024.

The national selectors didn’t consider Nasir due to an ongoing investigation by the International Cricket Council (ICC) for corruption charges

Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) governing council named 203 local players in the players' draft for the auction, scheduled to be held at a city hotel in Dhaka tomorrow. The players will be divided into six categories with the highest payment of Tk 80 lakhs from Category A.

Mushfiqur announced the news on social media.

Bangladesh's two most experienced players –Mushfiqur Rahim and Shakib Al Hasan – returned to the country on a three-day leave from the team following their defeat against Sri Lanka on Saturday night.

Bangladesh’s wicketkeeper-batter Mushfiqur Rahim is slated to return to the country after the match against Sri Lanka, team management sources have confirmed to The Daily Star.
