Star all-rounder makes T20I return weeks before T20 World Cup following a long hiatus

The all-rounder’s return to the T20I mix is a significant boost for the team ahead of the Men’s T20 World Cup in the West Indies and USA, as Shakib is their most experienced player in the tournament's history. Shakib featured in the inaugural edition of the tournament in 2007, and is also among the few players to have made appearances in all the editions so far. The 37-year-old carries the experience of 117 T20Is, with 2382 runs and 140 wickets to his name. Bangladesh are yet to unveil their squad for the 2024 event, and Shakib's timely return is a positive indication of his inclusion in the T20 World Cup squad.
