Taskin surely is better than many IPL pace bowlers but I doubt he has the capability to perform at that this level. Although IMO Indian IPL owners also take into account the PR factor buying Bangladeshi players. Mushfiq should have made a team earlier in his career but his anti Indian stance surely would have had some impact.
Indian media and politicians have normally always tried to express how they should maintain and hate thy neighbour attitude against Bangladesh.
For main years after the Indian journalists infested cricinfo, they have always tried to belittle Bangladesh's limited achievements during then. The swine S Rajesh is a typical example and he was quite open about it.
Even the South African Firdose Moonda, who I assume is ethically Desi as well continues to write crap when her South Africa loses to Bangladesh.
