BSS, Dhaka :
Bangladesh T20 skipper Shakib Al Hasan has made rapid strides in the MRF Tyres ICC Men’s T20I player rankings after fine efforts with both bat and ball in a three-match T20I series that his team lost to the Windies at home by a 2-1 margin.
The ace allrounder Shakib’s 103 runs in the series, which included a knock of 61 in the opening match in Sylhet and an unbeaten 42 in the next one in Dhaka which Bangladesh won, has seen him move up seven slots to 37th position in the list for batsmen.
The left-hander has also moved up among bowlers after taking eight wickets in the series, from 10th to seventh position. Shakib, the top-ranked all-rounder in Tests and second in ODIs, is now also ranked second in T20Is with a one-position gain in the latest rankings update after his Player of the Series effort.
Shakib’s team-mate Mahmudullah has similarly gained in all three lists. His 66 runs in the series have helped him gain two positions to reach 31st among batsmen while he also finished with five wickets in the series, advancing 17 places to 51st rank.
