After a long time, Shakib Al Hasan entered the field wearing the country’s jersey. One of the best cricketers of the team is returning to Test after almost a year. However, Shakib’s return was not bad. Shakib has performed well with bat and ball. Team captain Nazmul Hossain Shanto is very happy with that.
Shakib returned to the field after almost a year by playing against Sri Lanka in Chittagong. He picked up 3 wickets of the Lankans in the first innings. He spent 37 runs. In the second innings, he bowled 10 overs and took 1 wicket. Besides taking 4 wickets in two innings, he scored 15 and 36 with the bat.
All in all, Nazmul is happy with Shakib’s performance. At the press conference after the Chittagong Test, Nazmul said about Shakib, ‘He played after a long time, I didn’t think a 37-year-old was playing, he was playing a Test after almost a year. He bowled 37 overs in the first innings. He also took 3 wickets.
“The way he batted in the second innings, I got more from him than I expected. The truth is, having such experienced players in Test cricket is very beneficial. He also gave different types of feedback on the field.’- added the Bangladesh captain.
Bangladesh has several important test series in the future. Stating that it is good for the team if Shakib is in them, Nazmul further said, ‘We already knew that he will play in the second Test. He was right about the preparation. Yes of course it will be better for the team to know in advance. Then you can plan well.’
