Wassan: Blaming SRK for Mustafizur Controversy Unfair; One Player's Removal Won't Change Anything
- •BCCI directed KKR to release Bangladeshi cricketer Mustafizur Rahman amid backlash over targeting of Hindu minorities in Bangladesh.
- •Former India cricketer Atul Wassan deemed blaming KKR co-owner Shah Rukh Khan unfair, stating he's not the sole owner and KKR wasn't the only bidder.
- •Wassan argued that removing a single player like Mustafizur won't make a real difference or achieve "revenge" for the unrest.
- •He emphasized that politics and sports are interconnected, and the Bangladesh situation should not be equated with India-Pakistan tensions.
- •BJP leader Sangeet Singh Som welcomed BCCI's decision, targeting SRK and stating he understood not to go against "Sanatanis."
Why It Matters: Former cricketer Atul Wassan criticizes blaming SRK and calls Mustafizur's removal ineffective.
