Mostafizur Rahman has got the opportunity to get on the field since the beginning of this season of Indian Premier League (IPL). The Bangladeshi pacer was in the first three matches for Chennai Super Kings. However, he could not play the last match as he came to Bangladesh on visa work. Mustafiz arrived in Chennai yesterday. But will he be seen in today’s match?
Chennai will take on Kolkata Knight Riders today. The match will be played at 8 pm at Chennai’s home ground. It is not yet certain whether Chennai, who are looking for a win, will play Mustafiz in this match. But the chances of playing are high. A few reasons can be mentioned behind this.
Since the game is at Chennai’s home ground. As such, the possibility of Mustafiz being in the eleven is very strong. Because, the M Chidambaram Stadium pitch in Chipok is ideal for Mostafiz. In the previous two matches, Velki has shown the master of cutting in this field with the ball. He took 6 wickets in two matches. So Chennai can still keep him in the XI.
Chennai had a miserable defeat in the previous match. The main bowlers of the team did not do well. So Rituraj Gaikwad’s team can play Mustafiz to return to the winning streak today. But ultimately Mustafiz’s game or not depends on the management. He can play if he can overcome the stress of air travel.
Mostafiz has taken 7 wickets in 3 matches so far in this IPL. He has held the purple cap of the highest wicket taker for a long time. In the opening match of IPL against Royal Challengers, he was also the man of the match with 4 wickets for 29 runs.
