“Actually, Shakib’s [Al Hasan] batting, he is not in rhythm,” Bangladesh selector Hannan Sarkar said at the press conference in Mirpur after announcing a 16-member squad for the upcoming India Tests this month.

Shakib claimed four wickets for 97 runs in 33.5 overs -- bowling more than a third of the day's total overs.

Shakib was given his debut cap by West Indies pacer Kemar Roach. 

All-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has been provided an NOC by the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) to play for Surrey County Cricket Club in the ongoing County Championship Division One 2024.
