IPL 2026: Mustafizur Rahman's shocking KKR exit explained

In a twist worthy of a soap opera, IPL chairman Arun Dhumal commented on Mustafizur Rahman's surprising exit from Kolkata Knight Riders. The Bangladeshi bowler, who was bought for a staggering INR 9.5 crore, was released in January amid diplomatic tensions.
