Bangladesh Captain Hopes Shakib Al Hasan Shines Despite Political Setback

By AFP News August 20, 2024 • 23:25 PM View: 480

Bangladesh's cricket captain on Tuesday was confident that ace allrounder Shakib Al Hasan will compete at his best in a Test against Pakistan this week, after protests over the former lawmaker's inclusion.

Shakib, 37, was a member of the now dissolved Bangladesh parliament led by ex-premier Sheikh Hasina, who was forced to flee the country at the start of the month following mass protests.
