RAWALPINDI: Despite criticism over the former lawmaker’s inclusion, Bangladesh’s captain expressed confidence on Tuesday that star all-arounder Shakib Al Hasan will play at his peak in a Test match this week against Pakistan.
Shakib, 37, was a member of the parliament of Bangladesh, which was dissolved at the beginning of the month. Sheikh Hasina, the previous prime minister, was forced to leave the nation at that time due to widespread protests.
Shakib has not commented on the political situation. Last week, the interim administration gave him permission to play in the two Test matches against Pakistan, the first of which is scheduled to begin on Wednesday.
He has played this game for a very long time, so he is familiar with his job and how to get ready.
