Raja is leaving the IPL for the Bangladesh series

Sikandar Raja is currently in India to play in the Indian Premier League (IPL). But he will not be able to play all the matches of this season. Because the Zimbabwe team will come to Bangladesh on April 28 to play T20 series. Where Raja is the captain.

The national team comes first to the king. No matter which league he plays in the world, if there is a national team game at that time, the king will leave the league and play for the country without any conflict. Even if there is a series against a powerhouse like Nigeria, the all-rounder will choose that one.

In response to the question whether he will play in the series against Bangladesh from the beginning or not, Raja told the Zimbabwe-based website three-mob.com, ‘I will be there, God willing. Leaving the IPL (for the Bangladesh series).’

Raja told another website recently, ‘I have promised Zimbabwe cricket, I will not miss a single limited overs match in the country. Because of this, no matter what league you want to leave.’

“If Zimbabwe tells me now that there is a series in three days, and the opponent is Nigeria, I don’t care. If Zimbabwe takes me, I will leave the PSL. If the series comes during IPL, I will leave IPL. GlobalT20, CPL, ILT20—whatever the league is,” he added.

The first three matches of the five-match series against Bangladesh will be played at Zahoor Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chittagong. The remaining two will be in Mirpur Sher-e-Bangla. The match between the two teams will begin on May 3. The remaining two matches will be held in Chittagong on May 5 and 7. The last two T20s of the series will be held in Mirpur on May 10 and 12.
