The all-rounder has emerged as a vital cog in the Bangladesh side

One of the finest all-rounders to emerge from Bangladesh cricket, Shakib Al Hasan has impressed one and all with his ability with both bat and ball. The 30-year-old has single-handedly carried the responsibility of his side and emerged as one of the leading all-around players in the world.

Bowling his slow left-arm spin, he has reaped rewards for his consistency to bowl in the channel of uncertainty. He has also used the subtle change of pace to deceive batsmen. Playing most of the home matches at the Shere Bangla Stadium in Mirpur, Shakib has used the slow nature of the pitch and conditions on offer to the fullest as he has scalped 103 wickets in 63 matches with an average of 25.24.

In the year 2015, Shakib registered his best figures at this match venue as he wrecked the batting line up of Zimbabwe with a crucial five-wicket haul. In his quota of 10 overs, he picked up five wickets, giving away only 47 runs to help his side to a famous win.
