Bangladesh speedster Mustafizur Rahman on Tuesday flew off to India
to play in the Indian Premiere League for franchise Sunrisers Hyderabad.
“I am not at all edgy. I am going to play for IPL for the first time in my life. I hope everyone will put me in their prayers. I hope they will pray for Shakib as well,” said Mustafiz prior to his departure.
But he regrets that he and Shakib Al Hasan will not be in the same team. “It would have been great if I could play in Shakib’s team,” he said. Sunrisers Hyderabad hired Mustafiz, who had the best bowling figure in the just-concluded World T20, for Rs 1,40,00,000.
