Latest Update: Shakib's Participation in Afghanistan ODI Series in Doubt

Uncertainty Surrounds Shakib's Availability

Shakib Al Hasan, a key member of the Bangladesh cricket team, is unsure about his participation in the upcoming three-match ODI series against Afghanistan. The series is scheduled to begin on November 6 in the UAE, leaving Shakib in the dark about his potential involvement.

Background Check

Shakib was initially hesitant to return home due to security concerns after being accused in a murder case during the unrest that led to the fall of the government while playing the Test series against India. Despite this, the BCB allowed him to continue playing, stating that he would face no repercussions until proven guilty.

Recent Retirement Announcement

Shakib had announced his retirement from both the Test and T20I formats in September, during the Kanpur Test against India. He expressed a desire to play his final Test at home against South Africa, which ultimately did not materialize.

Shakib's Post-Retirement Plans

With the announcement of his retirement, Shakib was targeting the Champions Trophy next year as a fitting last hurrah for his international career. As a result, he was expected to participate in the ODI series against Afghanistan and the subsequent series against West Indies to prepare for the global event.

The Bottom Line

The BCB's uncertainty surrounding Shakib's participation in the upcoming series has sparked debate within the selection panel. Members have confirmed that they are yet to receive any information from the top brass, leaving them unsure about whether Shakib will be selected for the team.
