Shakib Al Hasan is the No. 1 all-rounder in Test and ODI cricket and is ranked third in T20Is. Sunrisers were lucky to buy Shakib for a steal price of Rs. 2 Cr.

The Bangla all-rounder has been a key player in the Sunrisers Hyderabad lineup and he has contributed for the Hyderabad-based franchise with both bat and ball.

With the ball, he has picked up 8 wickets in 9 matches for SRH and conceded runs at a measly economy rate of 7.37. With the bat, he did not spend much time in the middle but scored 123 runs in 7 innings with an average of 20.50.

He has formed a brilliant partnership with Rashid Khan, and together they have brought the opposition's scoring rate down. What's more interesting about the spin-duo is that they are capable of bowling at all stages of the game.
