As a result, the Indian Premier League will not be aired in Bangladesh this season, a Reuters report said.<\/p>\n<p>The break comes after an earlier restriction on IPL broadcasts in Bangladesh, linked to growing friction between the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). The dispute traced back to Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman, whose contract with Kolkata Knight Riders was ended following the BCCI\u2019s intervention.<\/p>\n<h3>Quick facts<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>JioStar terminated its broadcast agreement with a local partner in Bangladesh.<\/li>\n<li>IPL will not be shown in Bangladesh this season as a consequence of the termination.<\/li>\n<li>The earlier broadcast ban was tied to tensions between the BCB and the BCCI over Mustafizur Rahman.<\/li>\n<li>JioStar said the agreement was ended immediately, citing payment-timeline defaults by its partner.<\/li>\n<li>The same move also affects Women\u2019s Premier League (WPL) coverage in Bangladesh.<\/li>\n<li>Mustafizur Rahman was signed by Kolkata Knight Riders for Rs 9.20 crore, then released after BCCI directions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In its termination notice, JioStar said the arrangement was \u201cterminated with immediate effect.\u201d The letter, referenced in the report, was addressed to Bangladesh broadcaster TSports and described the earlier sublicensing of IPL rights for the 2023 to 2027 window.<\/p>\n<p>JioStar pointed to business and payment complications as the core reason. The company claimed its partner had shown a \u201ccontinued failure and default\u201d in meeting the payment timelines laid out in the agreement.<\/p>\n<p>The fallout is not limited to the men\u2019s league. The termination also extends to the Women\u2019s Premier League (WPL), with the broadcaster ending arrangements for both competitions in Bangladesh on similar grounds.<\/p>\n<h3>Backdrop: wider India-Bangladesh strain<\/h3>\n<p>The decision lands amid broader strains between India and Bangladesh following political changes in Dhaka in August 2024. The unrest led to former prime minister Sheikh Hasina leaving the country after a mass uprising, and cricket administration ties were reported to have become increasingly tense in the aftermath.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in 2026, the IPL broadcast ban in Bangladesh had been sparked by the Mustafizur Rahman controversy. The fast bowler had been picked up by Kolkata Knight Riders for Rs 9.20 crore, but the franchise later released him after receiving instructions from the BCCI.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JioStar has cut ties with its Bangladesh broadcast partner, ending the deal that would have carried IPL coverage in the country.
