Shakib Al Hasan: Bangladesh’s Cricketing Superstar Speaks Out on Preparation for Upcoming T20 World Cup

Shakib Al Hasan, a renowned Bangladesh cricketer, has been a key player for his country for many years. With an impressive record in Tests, ODIs, and T20Is, he has earned the title of world No. 1 all-rounder in T20Is. However, his off-field activities have also made headlines, including an incident where he was seen shouting at an umpire and another where he assaulted a fan who approached him for a selfie.

Despite the controversy surrounding him, Shakib has expressed his dissatisfaction with Bangladesh’s preparation for the upcoming T20 World Cup in 2024. He believes that the team’s performance in the previous World Cup was reasonable but not exceptional, and they have a chance to surpass that benchmark with better preparation. In an effort to adapt to the conditions of the USA, where the T20 World Cup will be held, Bangladesh is playing a series against the USA. While Shakib acknowledges the importance of getting accustomed to the conditions, he also acknowledges that it may not be the ideal preparation for the tournament.
