Afghanistan Spin Bowler Mujeeb Ur Rahman Sanctioned

Mujeeb Ur Rahman has been left out of the Melbourne Renegades BBL clash against Melbourne Stars after changes were made to his No-Objection Certificate (NOC) conditions, due to his decision to be left out of Afghanistan's central contracts list for 2024. The Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) sanctioned Mujeeb, Naveen-ul-Haq, and Fazalhaq Farooqi, preventing them from playing in T20 leagues for two years. Despite the exclusion from the Renegades squad, Naveen and Farooqi showed a commitment to representing Afghanistan in international cricket. Mujeeb, who is a key player in the Renegades, was instrumental in their only win of the BBL 2023-24 season. He had also played in the IPL. The Afghanistan T20I series against UAE is currently tied at 1-1, with the final match scheduled for January 2nd.
