Bangladesh Cricket Board has confirmed that Shakib Al Hasan will return as their captain of the T20 side in the upcoming Asia Cup and has been named the skipper at least until the next T20 World Cup. The BCB made the announcement a few weeks after Shakib's name was involved with a betting company.

As per a report by Cricbuzz, Shakib Al Hasan has landed in trouble with the Bangladesh Cricket Board for promoting a betting site Betwinner News and might be handed a notice. The board's president has spoken out strongly against the cricketer's actions and revealed they were not informed beforehand.

Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal stated that the team was hungry to win after they won the second ODI of the three-match series on Wednesday. Tamim also stated that any victory shouldn’t be undermined even if it comes with a weak opposition as no team in international cricket let you win easily.

It is usually a tough task even for technically string batters to clear the fence while playing a stroke from backfoot. Rovman Powell managed such heroics against Bangladesh as he lofted a ball in the air from his backfoot while facing Shakib Al Hasan and managed to clear boundary ropes with ease.
