Mustafizur Likely To Miss IPL Compensation

KKR Release Leaves Bangladesh Pacer Without Insurance Cover

January 6, 2026: Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman is unlikely to receive compensation after being released by Kolkata Knight Riders on BCCI instructions. Despite being bought for Rupee 9.20 crore at the IPL auction Mustafizur had no role in the events that led to his exit from the tournament.

Sources say IPL insurance covers injuries or cricket related withdrawals only. Since Mustafizur was released due to non cricketing reasons KKR are not contractually required to pay him. Legal options exist but are seen as impractical due to jurisdiction and geopolitical concerns.

The episode has sparked debate on player protection in politically driven situations. As matters stand Mustafizur is set to leave empty handed highlighting gaps in safeguards for overseas players caught in administrative decisions.
