Is Shakib Al Hasan Finished as an International Cricketer?

[SillyCowCorner1]

Hey all, I just wanted to make a controversial thread for the controversial Saqibul Hasan after his recent theatrics in Dhaka Premier League….

 

[Magrat Garlick]

context from 6,072 onwards in the thread that must not be named

 

[Gob]

He should have finished years ago. Disgraceful cricketer

 

[OverratedSanity]

Yeah sadly seems to be the case. Has done his reputation massive harm since 2018. He doesnt even want to play tests anymore.

 

[Migara]

First his theatrics were fun. Now it has become insane.

 

[Gob]

As they say, either you die a hero or live long enough to see your self become shakiBull

 

[Burgey]

Hopefully

 

[_Ed_]

I've been a big fan for most of his career, but jeez he's plummeted in my estimations in recent years. Has to be running out of chances, surely.

 

[cnerd123]

He's still quality as a cricketer but is a questionable role model for youngsters in and around BD cricket these days.

I find it very tough to criticize any Bangladeshi player rebelling given that Lord Protector clown who runs the BCB but as a seasoned international cricketer, you have to be able to show patience and restraint. He is not doing himself any favors when he is being seen as the bad guy in a tussle with the BCB and its patron.

Was actually thinking this a bit myself. Now keep in mind I'm getting most of this info from facebook comments (I know, I know) but the general consensus from those in that part of the world is that nearly every game is fixed and the umpires are a big part of it. If true, which is a big if, I can definitely understand a player's frustration.

Wait i wasn't aware of this. This certainly paints a very different picture all of a sudden if true

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Yeah Khaled Mahmud was never an international standard cricketer

 

[honestbharani]

Not only that, the opponent side was coached by a BCB director - former international Khaled Mahmud. So you can see why he would be annoyed by biased umpiring towards a side that was literally coached by one of the BCB's highest ranking staff.

Yeah the first thing i was really surprised by this is that this wasn't international to wear your heart in your sleeves. Yes professional cricketers pride their performances regardless of the format but big part of playing franchise cricket is earning so its not prudent to rile that.

 

[Heboric]

That video of him throwing tantrums doesnt look good at all, no matter the context

 

[Burgey]

nearly every game is fixed

He’s the last bloke who should be angry at that ffs

 

[TheJediBrah]

He’s the last bloke who should be angry at that ffs

Always the possibility he's angry because he fixed them the other way . . .

 

[slippy888]

He going to carry on playing another 3 years at least
