#1 Shakib Al Hasan
If there is one man in the Bangladesh team who has been able to earn the tag of a superstar, it has to be Shakib Al Hasan. The spin-bowling all-rounder has been one of the pillars of his country’s cricket with both bat and ball, enjoying great success across all formats.
The Bangladeshis have won 74 matches with Shakib as a part of the team and he has a batting average almost 50 and a bowling average of 22.01 in these games. These numbers are far better compared to his career stats of 35.34 and 27.62 with bat and ball respectively.
Shakib Al Hasan has also been a rare success story for his team in the longer version with 550 runs at a great average of 50 in 6 Tests won by Bangladesh as opposed to 39.76 in his career. He has been even better in the bowling department with 35 wickets at 19.74 in contrast to an overall average of more than 33.
His T20I record, too, is quite outstanding in Bangladeshi wins with figures of 32.33 with the bat and 16 with the ball against 23.97 and 20.33 in all matches. Shakib is only 29 years old currently and has every chance of carving his own niche in the history of the game.
