Right after the 2015 World Cup, Mustafizur Rahman was hailed as the next big thing for Bangladesh who possibly could become their best ever produced pacer. With that reputation, Rahman soon fetched an ideal IPL contract with SRH back in 2017 and seemed to an elite pacer in making. However, with a constant set of injuries, the craft of his fast bowling has massively lost its magic and that’s the reason why after 2017, Mutafizur has hardly played in the IPL.

But in the February auction where Rahman was bagged for INR I Crore, the pacer was expected to be RR’s second preferred overseas seamer. Now with Jofra Archer being unavailable, Rahman hence has a leading opportunity to lead the RR’s bowling attack along with Chris Morris. The IPL 2021 in a general sense can be a make or break year for Mustafizur, as in the previous IPL auctions he has been highly ignored and also gets avoided because of his routine injuries.

A strong IPL season like in 2016 might pave the way for Rahman to extensively have furthermore IPL stints or otherwise, the pacer might face further rejections, especially in the near future season. All in all, irrespective of his current form wherein he had an inferior T20I series against NZ, the Bangladesh pacer has a lot to prove in IPL 2021.
