Mominul, Taskin, Mustafiz granted NOC to play foreign leagues

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has granted No Objection Certificates (NOCs) to three players-Mominul Haque, Taskin Ahmed, and Mustafizur Rahman-allowing them to participate in various cricket leagues.

Mominul Haque, a veteran of Test cricket, will be heading to Australia to play for New South Wales in the Grade Cricket competition. He left for Australia in the early hours of Thursday.

Pace bowlers Mustafizur Rahman and Taskin Ahmed will be competing in the International League T20 (ILT20) in the United Arab Emirates. Mustafizur, who has been signed by Dubai Capitals, is scheduled to leave for the UAE on Thursday night. Meanwhile, Taskin Ahmed, who will play for Sharjah Warriors, is awaiting his first game in the tournament.

The BCB has granted these players NOCs until December 23, meaning they must return to Bangladesh before the start of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) T20.

Leg-spinner Rishad Hossain was earlier granted an NOC to play for Hobart Hurricanes in the Big Bash League (BBL) T20 in Australia. Rishad will be missing the BPL this year, as he will be participating in the full season of the Big Bash.
