Results for: Dhaka Premier League

Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has been caught on video assaulting a fan who approached him for a selfie. The incident occurred during the Dhaka Premier League, where Shakib was representing the Sheikh Jamal Dhanmondi club. Shakib initially refused the fan’s request but grew agitated as the fan persisted, leading to the altercation. Fans and commentators have condemned Shakib’s behavior, criticizing him for his lack of professionalism and aggression. Despite the incident, Shakib has expressed his concerns about the team’s performance in the upcoming World Cup. He emphasized the importance of winning matches in the first round and adapting to the conditions in the United States.

Bangladesh allrounder Shakib Al Hasan is likely to make his return to T20I cricket next month against Zimbabwe, according to chief selector Gazi Ashraf Hossain. Shakib has not played a T20I or ODI since November last year due to an eye condition and a finger injury, but he returned to international cricket in the Chattogram Test against Sri Lanka earlier this month.

The 36-year-old is expected to arrive in Dhaka at the end of this month and could play one or two Dhaka Premier League matches before joining up with the Bangladesh T20I squad. He is likely to be included in the squad for the first T20I against Zimbabwe on May 3 in Chattogram, but he will miss the first match of the series as he is currently playing for Chennai Super Kings in the IPL.

Bangladesh will play the first three T20Is against Zimbabwe in Chattogram on May 3, 5 and 7, and the last two T20Is in Dhaka on May 10 and 12.
