In the first ODI match against Ireland, Shakib ul Hassan turns the game after the 35th over. At the ball of Off-spinner Harry Tector, Shakib collapses to sweep the first delivery from outside the off stump to hit a boundary. Next, he pitched him over cover and swept again to hit three more fours. Tectors over ended up with five consecutive boundaries. Shakib turns the total score above 300 in this game. Shakib also goes for a century against Ireland in the first ODI.
These great innings by Shakib for Bangladesh turned the Bangladesh score toward 338 for 8 wickets loss, their top ODI score. Shakib also comes into action in the bowling line and takes the advantage to break the first 60-run partnership. In the first ODI match against Ireland, Bangladesh picks up their biggest victory in the ODI format.
BCB’s Cricket Chairman Halal Yunas answered the questions about Shakib’s spot in the series against England and Ireland. Shakib’s matter of opening a store in Dubai is in the highlights. Bangladesh security authorities declared that Shakib is ignoring their warning about the owner, who is under investigation regarding a murder case by the police.
Jalal Yunus said they would discuss if this commercial activity interferes with the BCB contract with Shakib. But they know Shakib ul Hassan will join the training session in Sylhet in March. After the third T20 match against England, Shakib initiated another store in Chattogram. In the lead of Shakib ul Hassan, Bangladesh dominated the world’s T20 champions by 3-0. Shakib was one of the top players in the T20 series against England.
After the third match, on 9th March, he had to shake a big crowd to get to his car after the opening ceremony of his store. After that, footage showed that someone tried to steal his cap, but Shakib got the cap back. Also, he knocked on the person a few times.
Shakib ul Hassan also made harsh comments about the tournament. In Bangladesh Cricket history, no other player, coach or team member has made such strong comments. Shakib also attacked the umpire twice in the first week and got punished for the second sin. Shakib scored 375 runs and picked up 10 wickets in the BPL tournament.
Regardless of his incredible performance in his cricket career, many scandals have been in the spotlight. His two aspects of life on and off the field are different. But both factors raise a question: How did Shakib live both aspects of life?
Fahim revealed a surprising fact about Shakib. He said that Shakib has a reserved nature, but when it comes to matching, he also shows a brilliant performance and never mixes up his on-field and off-field life. Shakib lives with a positive mentality and never looks back on dark aspects of the past. Shakib is a mentally skilled person as he nicely managed his career and personal life.
Last Year, Shakib decided to tour some countries, but this decision created friction between BCB and Shakib. When BCB pulled him up, Shakib returned his sponsorship to a betting company. This incident occurred before Asia Cup and the World Cup tournament in 2022. In Shakib’s leadership, the Bangladesh squad played the best innings of the T20 format, turning the cricket career in a new direction.
Earlier in March 2022, Shakib was unwilling to tour South Africa, but a few days later, he changed his mind and toured South Africa. BCB didn’t treat Shakib ul Hassan strictly; that is the main reason for how quickly Shakib recovered from such bad incidents. He wisely covers both aspects of life. Shakib never let them mix. If he faces failure in batting, he attacks the batters with his bowl brilliantly. If his personal life meets bad incidents, he nicely covers them with his on-field performance.
