After being dropped from the IPL, Bangladesh speedster Mustafizur Rahman has got an opportunity in the Pakistan Super League. The Pakistan Cricket Board has announced signing him. However, which team he will play for has not been announced yet. But there was a question about how much money Mustafizur will get by joining the PSL. How much will he get instead of ₹9.20 crore in the IPL? Now that the figure has come to light.
After being one of KKR's best players in the IPL mini auction, Mustafizur Rahman had to be dropped due to diplomatic relations between the two countries. KKR dropped him on BCCI's instructions. After he was dropped, the Bangladesh Cricket Board and the Bangladesh government went all out against India. However, amid this controversy, Pakistan announced that they have signed Mustafizur for the PSL. Reports reveal that Mustafizur is getting much less money by joining the PSL.

This Bangladeshi pacer falls in the platinum category of the PSL. Players in this category of the PSL get ₹1.50 to ₹1.70 crore in Indian currency. This is the highest salary in the PSL. According to that calculation, Mustafizur will get this money. Which is much less than KKR's ₹9.20 crore.
Mustafizur last played in the PSL in 2018. That time he played for Lahore Qalandars. This time, everyone is watching which team he plays for. However, even if he gets a lower salary, he will remain in the matches. That is the consolation for Bangladeshi supporters.
