Shakib Al Hasan signed for the traditional powerhouse Mohammedan Sporting Club to play in the Dhaka Premier Division Cricket League (DPL) as the Bangladesh megastar cricketer arrived at the Cricket Committee of Dhaka Metropolis (CCDM) office on Saturday morning and completed the formalities.

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul Hassan Papon visited the Tigers' team hotel in the capital on Thursday at Shakib Al Hasan's request but could not meet the star all-rounder, who was reportedly busy fulfilling a commercial commitment elsewhere.

Bangladesh opener Rony Talukdar's stellar run in the recently concluded Bangladesh Premier League for the Rangpur Riders earned him a comeback to the Tigers T20I squad gearing up to face England in the three-match series next week.

Rony Talukdar and Shamim Hossain returned to the squad while Towhid Hridoy, Rejaur Rahman Raja, and Tanvir Islam received their maiden T20I call-up for the England series.

Bangladesh coach Chandika Hathurusingha was not interested to talk about the Shakib Al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal issue. He wanted to look forward to the future leadership of Liton Das and Mehidi Hasan Miraz. The 54-year-old veered away from those issues and in the build-up to the series asserted that Bangladesh would have the upper hand in the contest.

Bangladesh's first-ever ODI captain Gazi Ashraf Hossain Lipu opined that the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul Hassan Papon could have waited till the end of the upcoming England series to give rise to the new talk of the town, relating to the previously assumed strained relationship between two Bangladesh stalwarts -- Shakib Al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal. 

After having the media analyse and scrutinise the now-confirmed ‘strained relationship’ between Tamim and Shakib that had gone on to ‘stale the dressing room environment’, Hassan performed a stunning U-turn on his words on Monday, just a day after Tamim denied any ‘unhealthy environment for the past 15 years in the dressing room’ in a pre-series presser in Mirpur.

Bangladesh coach Chandika Hathurusingha believes the rumoured rift between two senior players won't affect the team's performance on the pitch.

Bangladesh ODI captain Tamim Iqbal has claimed that everything is fine within the team as he tried to brush aside president’s claims of a rift between him and Shakib Al Hasan, during a press conference on Sunday.

The bitter relationship between ‘best friends’ Shakib Al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal has been festering for quite some time now and has remained something of an open secret in the nation’s cricket fraternity, but the topic came squarely to the forefront after Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul Hassan Papon admitted that the relationship between the two national stalwarts was strained during an interview with Cricbuzz on Saturday.

Previously, a lot of rumours surrounding the issue circulated, especially from outside the team management

Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has released the list of 21 cricketers under central contracts for the year 2023.

Fortune Barishal picked their third victory on the trot in the ongoing ninth edition of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) as the Shakib Al Hasan-led side handed a 12-run defeat to Comilla Victorians at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on Saturday.

Bangladesh Test and T20I skipper Shakib Al Hasan, who is the captain of Fortune Barishal at least in an official basis, entered the field of play angry at the start of Barishal’s chase against Rangpur Riders today.

The Bangladesh Premier League’s (BPL) governing council yesterday invited all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan to take up the challenge to improve the standard of the country’s premier franchise-based T20 tournament.
