#3 Consistency

The thing with Bangladesh is that the country has always produced talented players, but most of them weren’t consistent enough. Rather, they were more of flash-in-the-pan sort of players who performed once in a blue moon to wow the fans.

However, Shaklb was among the very first players to perform with a level of consistency never seen before from any Bangladeshi player. It is for this reason that the 30-year-old has been ever present in the team since arriving to the scene in 2006.

Indeed, Shakib has been holding his place as the top-ranked all-rounder in all three formats for a long, long time. Ravindra Jadeja took over the place in Tests for a while, but Shakib is once again the rank 1 all-rounder in the longest format of the game.

Currently, he is the top-ranked all-rounder in Tests, ODIs and T20Is.
