Shakib will lead Bangladesh in the 2023 World Cup and Asia Cup. An important development for the team is the announcement that Shakib Al Hasan has been named the ODI captain for Bangladesh for the forthcoming Asia Cup and the 2023 World Cup. Shakib Al Hasan is a suitable candidate for this leadership position due to his extensive experience as a seasoned all-rounder and familiarity with the international cricket scene.
“Shakib has been named the team’s captain for the Asia Cup and World Cup. Tomorrow will see the announcement of the World Cup and Asia Cup rosters. A roster of 17 players will be chosen by the selectors.” President of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB), Nazmul Hassan.
Bangladesh has a busy calendar in addition to the Asia Cup and the ODI World Cup in 2023. They will play New Zealand in a white-ball series in September, and then on October 5 they will begin playing in the World Cup in India. These possibilities offer chances for performance evaluation, talent development, and high-level competitiveness on a worldwide scale.
Following Tamim Iqbal’s resignation on August 3, Shakib Al Hasan was named the new ODI captain of Bangladesh, replacing Iqbal. Tamim decided to resign due to a back issue that prevented him from competing in the upcoming Asia Cup.
