After Mustafizur IPL exit, Bangladesh wants its T20 World Cup games out of India

Multiple incidents of Hindus being killed in Bangladesh have been reported, and this has led the relations to become strained between the two countries. The last few days saw KKR and co-owner Shah Rukh Khan being targeted, and the situation finally culminated with the BCCI asking the franchise to release the left-arm pacer from their squad.

According to ESPNCricinfo, the BCB is expected to write to the apex cricket body as they will be raising the issue about player safety in Kolkata, where Bangladesh are scheduled to play their first three matches of the T20 World Cup.

“We have three matches of the T20 World Cup in Kolkata, so we will write to the ICC regarding what has happened today,” the BCB's media committee chairman, Amzad Hussain, told ESPNcricinfo.
