Riddhima was to appear as a host in BPL this year but she was removed from the presentation team even before reaching Bangladesh. The current season of BPL has started in Sylhet. Pakistani Zainab Abbas has got a place in the presenter panel and she has also reached Bangladesh. Apart from this, there are Pakistani commentators in the commentary panel. These include Waqar Younis and Rameez Raza. Apart from these, Darren Gog is also in the commentary panel. Earlier on January 5, the Bangladesh government had suspended the telecast of IPL 2026 matches in its country. He has given this decision in response to BCCI asking KKR to release Bangladeshi fast bowler Mustafizur Rahman from its squad. In Bangladesh, atrocities against minorities, especially Hindus, are at their peak during the interim government led by Mohammad Yunus, a puppet of fundamentalists. In the last few days alone, at least 6 Hindus have been brutally murdered by fundamentalists. Apart from this, there have also been incidents of Hindu houses being locked from outside and set on fire. There is anger in India due to this. Many Hindu organizations had demanded the exclusion of Bangladeshi cricketer Mustafizur Rahman from the IPL. Later BCCI directed KKR to drop Rahman from the squad. After this, Bangladesh wrote a letter to ICC demanding to move its T20 World Cup matches out of India due to security reasons. Then it suspended the telecast of IPL in Bangladesh. However, according to a report by ESPNcricinfo, the ICC has bluntly told Bangladesh that if you want to play a World Cup match in India, then play it, otherwise be prepared to lose points.
