Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman flew out to India early this morning to join Delhi Capitals in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

Mustafiz was granted NOC by Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) and was permitted to miss the lone Test match against Ireland. 

However, the ‘cutter master’ will miss Delhi’s first game today against Lucknow Super Giants.

After wrapping up the three-match T20I series against Ireland 2-1, Mustafizur along with Shakib al Hasan, RonyTalukdar, Mehidy Hasan Miraz and BCB President Nazmul Hasan Papon returned to Dhaka last night.

Mustafiz will have to fight with other bowlers in the DC camp the likes of Anrich Nortje, and Lungi Ngidi and will be joined by David Warner, Mitchel Marsh and other star cricketers.

Apart from fizz, Shakib and Liton Das are also set to feature in IPL, however, it’s yet to be known when the cricketers will join the KKR’s base.

BCB denied NOC to Shakib and Liton for the whole season as Bangladesh are scheduled to tour Ireland next month.
