Shakib Al Hasan's contribution to Bangladesh's rise in international cricket is unparalleled and yet again, the all-rounder is making crucial contributions in the ongoing edition of the World Cup.

In Bangladesh's vital 21-run win against South Africa, Shakib Al Hasan's 84-ball 75 earned him the top honours and in the next game against New Zealand, Al Hasan came in at No.3 and essayed a mature knock, scoring a 68-ball 64 even as his team was skittled out for 244.

In Bangladesh's chase of a mammoth 387 against England, Al Hasan was yet again the lone bright spark for Bangladesh as he notched up his maiden century this World Cup, a 119-ball 121 with 12 fours and one six that ensured that England did not get away with a huge win.

From three games, Shakib Al Hasan has 260 runs with an average of 86.67 and a strike rate of 95.94.
