India Suspends Bangladesh Cricket Tour Amidst Political Instability Concerns

India's upcoming white-ball cricket tour of Bangladesh has been suspended by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) due to concerns over political instability and civil unrest in Bangladesh. The BCCI stated that the safety of Indian players is paramount and requires explicit government approval. This decision impacts the series scheduled for September 2026, with the Bangladesh Cricket Board expressing hope for its eventual continuation. The BCCI also directed Kolkata Knight Riders to release Mustafizur Rahman from their 2026 roster.
