I do not see another player in the Bangladesh team with the ability to win matches like Shakib does. We have to look no further than the Tigers’ win against New Zealand. Bangladesh were facing certain defeat against the Kiwis, but Shakib, with the help of Mahmudullah Riyad, rescued the South Asian nation from almost certain defeat.

Chasing 266 set by the Kiwis, Bangladesh’s top order took a hit as they found themselves reeling at 33/4 after 11.4 overs. After that, Shakib and Mahmudullah steadied the innings in the best possible way. In the end, Shakib’s heroics helped Bangladesh qualify for the next round of the Champions Trophy as he scored 114 off 115 balls to get his team over the line.

This was just one of the many times he saved his team from adverse situations. It doesn’t matter whether it is with the bat or the ball, Shakib can all always be relied upon to do magic and help the team to win games from the toughest of situations
