Despite entering the World Cup in India with high aspirations, Bangladesh experienced a tournament filled with disappointment. However, amidst the team's struggles, Mahmudullah emerged as a standout performer, particularly impressing the top-order batsmen.
Mahmudullah and Shakib Al Hasan, who previously played for the Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL, have divergent fates in the upcoming auction. While Shakib and Liton Das, who participated in the last season, are absent from this year's draft, six other Bangladeshi cricketers have eagerly enlisted their names. The players include Mostafizur Rahman, Mahmudullah Riyad, Taskin Ahmed, Shariful Islam, Hasan Mahmud, and Mehdi Hasan Miraj. The IPL Governing Council unveiled the draft list on Friday.
After finishing at the bottom in the last two test championships, Bangladesh has kicked off the current edition on a remarkable note. The team secured a significant win by defeating the formidable Kiwis, who were the champions of the first Test Championship. This triumph against New Zealand is particularly noteworthy as it marks Bangladesh's first-ever win at home, sparking jubilation among the cricketers.
