The world’s best all-rounder became the first bowler in the world to take the wicket of Rohit Sharma with the ball in hand against India on Saturday.
The India captain’s wicket was his 50th in T20 World Cup. Earlier, no cricketer in the world has taken 50 wickets in T20 World Cup. Bangladesh’s experienced all-rounder made this record as the first cricketer.
Shakib Al Hasan’s bowling performance in the India match was not very good. However, he bowled three overs and took 1 wicket with 37 runs in the match against India.
Team captain Nazmul Hossain Shanto brought Shakib into the attack in the second over. Rohit Sharma played an aggressive role against Shakib and took wickets. He returned to the pavilion after scoring 23 runs off 11 balls. He hit 3 fours and 1 six. Rohit Sharma got out after hitting Shakib for a six. Along with that, Shakib became the owner of a new record.
Shakib played 128 T20 matches and took 149 wickets. He is just away from yet another milestone in international cricket. Shakib will become the owner of 150 wickets in international T20 if he gets 1 wicket against Afghanistan.
