Big news before IPL 2026
Before the start of IPL 2026, this good news has come out from Bangladesh. As soon as this news came out, there was happiness on the faces of all the cricket fans. All those cricket fans of Bangladesh are jubilant with joy, who have been crazy about the Indian Premier League for years.

This time i.e. this is not going to happen in IPL 2026. No Bangladeshi player is going to play in the 19th season of IPL. Only one Bangladeshi player was bought in the IPL 2026 auction. Kolkata Knight Riders had bought Mustafizur Rahman. But he was thrown out of the IPL on the orders of BCCI after huge protests in India amid the atrocities on Hindus in Bangladesh.
Bangladesh kneels before India
After this, Bangladesh took revenge from India and banned the telecast of Indian Premier League (IPL) in its country. Due to this, the cricket fans of Bangladesh were very disappointed, who follow this tournament very closely. But now Bangladesh Cricket Board has listened to them and lifted the ban on telecast of IPL in the country. With this, Bangladesh has surrendered before India.
