Mustafizur's NOC was originally set to expire on April 30, but it was extended till May 1 which made him available for CSK's clash against Punjab Kings at Chepauk.
"We had given Mustafizur a leave to play in the IPL till April 30, but since Chennai has a match on May 1, we have extended his leave by a day upon receiving a request from Chennai and the BCCI," Shahriar Nafees, BCB's deputy manager of cricket operations, said as quoted from ESPNcricinfo.
In the ongoing season, Mustafizur featured in nine matches and took 14 wickets at an economy of 9.26 and a bowling average of 22.71.

On the back of strong performances in the IPL, Mustafizur could be a key figure for Bangladesh in the upcoming T20 World Cup in the USA and the West Indies, beginning on June 1.
Bangladesh will play a five-match T20I series against Zimbabwe to gear up and finetune their squad for the marquee event.
Both teams will play the first T20I on Friday at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium, Chittagong. (ANI)
