Shakib, who aspired to win the title this season, achieved his maiden title triumph as the captain where his team Dhaka emerged victorious.
Following the BPL 5 draft, Shakib was added to the Dhaka Dynamites team squad in October 2017. Due to his all-around effort, Shakib was named man of the match in Dhaka's 43-run victory over Rangpur Riders, which solidified their second-place standing in the points table at the conclusion of the group round. Mehedi Maruf scored 33 off 23 balls with three fours and a six before he was removed from the game, but Shakib still managed to reach 47 off 33 balls without conceding a run. Together, they accumulated 55 runs for the sixth wicket. In his four overs, he also claimed two wickets at a cost of just 13 runs. Shakib failed to hang on to a chance from Chris Gayle, who went on to shatter several records with his undefeated 146 off 69 balls and a world record 18 sixes to propel Rangpur Riders to the title in that season's final. Gayle was at 22 when Shakib dropped a catch.

Fortune Barishal signed Shakib for the 2021–22 Bangladesh Premier League in December 2021. He guided the squad to the championship game, but in a thrilling conclusion, the Comilla Victorians defeated them by a run.

Shakib Al Hasan IPL Career
Shakib Al Hasan made his IPL debut in 2011 after getting picked by the Kolkata Knight Riders at the mega-auction.
He was a vital part of the KKR outfit which won IPL titles in 2012 and 2014. In the 2014 season, Shakib scored 227 runs in 13 innings @ 32.42/149.34 besides claiming 11 wickets at 30.36 apiece.
Shakib featured in just 16 games across next three seasons and was eventually released by KKR ahead of the 2018 mega auction, where he was picked up by the SunRisers Hyderabad.
However, he couldn't replicate his exploits for the Orange Army, and after a couple of underwhelming seasons, he was released.
Shakib returned to KKR in 2021, but a disastrous campaign, where he managed just 47 runs and 4 wickets in eight outings saw him getting released at the end of the season. He went unsold in the 2022 auction.
In the 2021 IPL auction, Shakib was listed at the highest base price of INR 2 crore. He was later acquired by his former side, KKR, for a price of ₹3.2 crore (US$380,000). On May 6, 2021, Shakib and Mustafizur Rahman went home aboard a chartered airplane organised by the BCCI, with their respective teams splitting the cost of the travel, following the suspension of the 2021 Indian Premier League. Shakib was unable to participate in the remaining IPL matches due to his inability to get a no-objection certificate (NOC) from the BCB. Shakib Al Hasan signed a Rs 1.5 crore contract with the Kolkata Knight Riders for the 2023 IPL. But he withdrew for personal reasons as well as international obligations with the Bangladesh national cricket team.
Overall, Shakib has played in 71 games, and he has scored 793 runs @ 19.83/124.49 in addition to taking 63 wickets at 29.19.

Shakib Al Hasan ODI Career
One of the greatest all-rounders to have ever played this format, Shakib Al Hasan made his ODI debut against Zimbabwe in August 2006.
A classy left-handed batter blessed with the ability to take down spin and pace with equal disdain coupled with his disciplined slow left-arm orthodox spin, Shakib Al Hasan is a dream player to have in any white-ball team.
Shakib made his maiden ODI century against Canada just before the 2007 World Cup in the West Indies.
Bangladesh had a memorable World Cup campaign as they pulled off shocking wins over India and South Africa played a massive role in both those victories. He delivered 10 disciplined overs against India which cost just 44 besides claiming 2 crucial wickets against the Proteas.
His century against Pakistan later that year further showcased his prowess, and by the time 2009 rolled around, Al Hasan established himself as one of the top all-rounders in world cricket.
Shakib was exceptional with both bat and ball during the 2010 ODI series against New Zealand, and it helped Bangladesh inflict a 4-0 whitewash over the BlackCaps.
Shakib led Bangladesh to victories over England, Netherlands and Ireland in the 2011 World Cup, but the group-stage exit followed by a series defeat in Zimbabwe proved to be a death knell for his captaincy.
However, he continued to spearhead Bangladesh with both bat and ball. His all-round performance in the 2012 Asia Cup- 237 runs & 6 wickets- helped Bangladesh qualify for the finals, which they eventually lost to Pakistan. Shakib was adjudged 'Player of the Tournament and in the process, he also reclaimed the No.1 ranking for all-rounders from Australia's Shane Watson.
In 2014, Shakib was handed a three match suspension by the BCB for making obscene gestures on live TV during an ODI against Sri Lanka. Later that year, he got involved in a brawl with a spectator at the Sher-e-Bangla Stadium, and was subsequently banned by the board for 6 months from all forms of the game. The ban was eventually reduced to three and a half months.
Shakib played a huge role in Bangladesh's success in the ODI format post the 2015 World Cup. He was a big part of the team that won three home series against India, Pakistan and South Africa in 2015, but it was his performances at the 2019 event that truly established him as an all-time ODI legend.
Batting at No.3, Shakib hammered as many as many 606 runs @ 86.57 with 5 50s and 2 100s besides claiming 11 wickets. He became the first player to complete a double of 400 runs + 10 wickets in a single edition of the World Cup.
Overall, Shakib has played 221 ODIs, and he has scored 6755 runs @ 37.53/82.26 besides taking 285 wickets at 29.48 apiece.
He was announced as Bangladesh's vice-captain for the 2019 Cricket World Cup in April 2019. He and Mushfiqur Rahim set the greatest partnership for any wicket for Bangladesh in a World Cup competition when they made 142 runs for the third wicket in the first innings of their country's debut World Cup encounter against South Africa. Bangladesh went on to finish with 330/6 from their 50 overs, then their best total in an ODI match at that time. He became the fastest bowler to collect 250 wickets and score 5,000 runs in One-Day Internationals (ODIs) in terms of the number of matches when he dismissed Aiden Markram in the second innings, marking his 250th wicket in the format (199).
Shakib was chosen player of the match as Bangladesh went on to win the match by a margin of 21 runs. He also made history in that game by becoming the first cricket player to reach fifty in Bangladesh's opening World Cup match since 2007. Shakib participated in his 200th ODI for Bangladesh against New Zealand in the tournament's second game. In the game against the West Indies on June 17, 2019, Shakib made history as the second batter for Bangladesh to reach 6,000 runs in One-Day Internationals. He received the man of the match award for his undefeated 124.
Shakib Al Hasan was bowled out for 41 in the match against Australia, his first World Cup total of less than fifty runs. He also lost the opportunity to surpass Tamim Iqbal, who scored five 50+ scores in 2012, for the record of being the first Bangladeshi player to record six straight 50+ scores in ODIs. Bangladesh finished with 333/8 in 50 overs during the second innings, surpassing their previous best total in an ODI match while being in the losing position.
Shakib became the first batter for Bangladesh to reach 1,000 runs in the Cricket World Cup on June 24, 2019, against Afghanistan, when he was once again voted man of the match. He also became the first bowler for Bangladesh to take a wicket. Shakib became the first batter for Bangladesh to reach 1,000 runs in a Cricket World Cup match and the first bowler to capture five wickets in a World Cup match on June 24, 2019, when his team played Afghanistan. He was once again voted man of the match. In addition, he made World Cup history by being the second cricket player, behind Yuvraj Singh, to both score fifty runs and claim five wickets in the same game.
Shakib became the first cricket player in World Cup history to score 600 runs and capture 10 wickets in a single tournament on July 2, 2019, during a match against India. At the end of the tournament, he was Bangladesh's top run scorer with 606 runs in eight matches, breaking Sachin Tendulkar's record for most runs in a World Cup group stage. In the World Cup, Shakib's batting average of 86.57 was astounding. He made eight appearances and claimed eleven wickets at the World Cup. He was included in the ICC and ESPNcricinfo "Team of the Tournament."
Shakib returned to the national camp in May 2021 after returning from India after the 2021 IPL suspension. He played in the ODI series against Sri Lanka, but struggled to perform well, scoring only 19 runs and picking up 3 wickets. He was included in the squad for the series against Zimbabwe, but failed in the one-off test. In the opening match, he became the leading wicket-taker for Bangladesh in ODIs, taking his 270th dismissal. In the second ODI, he picked up 2 wickets for 42 runs and scored unbeaten 96 runs, helping Bangladesh take a 2–0 lead. In the third ODI, he contributed with both bat and ball, earning Player of the Series. In the T20I series, he scored only 37 runs and picked up 3 wickets.
Shakib Al Hasan Test Career
Shakib Al Hasan made his Test debut against India in Chattogram in May 2007, and since then, he has gone on to establish himself as the greatest all-round cricketer that Bangladesh have ever produced.
In 2008, Shakib became just the 2nd Bangladeshi player to take 7 or more wickets in an innings, when he claimed 7-36 against New Zealand in Chittagong.
Shakib was appointed Test skipper in 2009, and in his first game in charge, he produced an all-round performance- 8 wickets & 96*- to help Bangladesh secure their maiden overseas series win- vs West Indies in Grenada.
He scored his maiden Test hundred in Hamilton against New Zealand in February 2010 to give further account of his abilities.
Shakib was removed from Test captaincy after Bangladesh lost a one-off game to Zimbabwe in 2011. But, he continued to remain a vital member of the side as a player.
In 2012, Shakib became just the 2nd Bangladeshi bowler to take 100 Test wickets, and the leading wicket-taker for his country at the time. He also became the fastest all-rounder to complete a double of 1000 runs and 100 wickets, achieving the milestone in just 28 Tests.
Two years later, Shakib registered another glorious feat as he became just the 3rd player in history to score 100 runs and claim 10 wickets in a Test. He achieved it against Zimbabwe.
In 2016, the left-arm orthodox proved a perfect foil to Mahedy Hasan as he claimed 12 wickets in 2 games, helping Bangladesh to claim their maiden Test win over England.
In 2017, Shakib became just the 3rd Bangladeshi batter to score a Test double-hundred when he hammered a brutal 217 against New Zealand in Wellington. However, as it turned out, it didn't prove to be enough for Bangladesh to win, even save the match.
He was reinstalled as captain in December 2017 following Mushfiqur Rahim's resignation. However, in 2019, he lost his post as he was handed a 12-month suspension from international cricket for his failure to report a bookie's approach to the ICC's Anti-Corruption Unit.
Post his comeback after the ban, Shakib became a reluctant Test player but with Bangladesh's performances being woeful under Mominul Haque, he was cajoled to assume leadership responsibilities in June 2022 following his brilliant performance in the Test series against Sri Lanka.
