Mustafizur Rahman is in great form in Indian Premier League (IPL) for Chennai Super Kings. So far, this pacer is the joint second best wicket taker with 10 wickets in 5 matches. However, the time of Mustafiz's return to the country is approaching. BCB initially gave permission to this pacer to play IPL till April 30. After that, the board extended the clearance period by one more day.

If everything goes well, Mustafiz will return home on May 2. However, BCB says that the reason for returning Mustafiz is not only the Zimbabwe series. The board is also keeping his fitness workload in mind. BCB Cricket Operations Chairman Jalal Yunus spoke to the media today on the Mustafiz issue.

'IPL players will learn from Mustafiz, he has nothing to learn'
Where is Mustafiz's next match, who are the opponents?

Jalal Yunus said, 'If they want to take hundred percent from Mustafiz. They don't have to worry about Mustafiz's fitness, health, but we do. The reason for bringing Mustafiz back here is not just for the Zimbabwe series. In the Zimbabwe series, we will play him with a fixed workload. If it is in IPL, that will not be the plan. So Mustafiz's learning chapter is over. There is no need to teach Mustafiz. He played cricket for seven-eight years. Playing in IPL. So they will benefit, we will not be.'

BCB Cricket Operations Chairman Jalal Yunus.

"Bringing Mustafiz back home does not mean we will play him in the Zimbabwe series. We will give him work load, reduce stress, stay with the team, increase understanding. Going to a big event like the World Cup, you have to adjust before you go. Must be fit. I need him.'-Jalal added.

Jalal Yunus said that the two players were tired from playing IPL before the 2021 T20 World Cup. BCB does not want to let that situation happen again. He said, 'In 2021, two players joined the World Cup after playing in the IPL. They said they were tired. We do not want to create that situation.

He also said, 'He has to be physically fit before going (T20 World Cup). He will not deliver if he is tired. So what do I need? i need him I want a fresh Mustafiz, not a tired Mustafiz.
