Will Shakib Al Hasan play in the Champions Trophy? BCB President Farooq Ahmed has probably had to answer this question the most in the last few days. He also had to answer questions at the BPL mascot unveiling ceremony yesterday. And Farooq said that it is difficult for him to answer this question about Shakib. After the BPL mascot unveiling ceremony, Farooq Ahmed faced the journalists. He answered various questions there. Farooq also listened to various arrangements to make the BPL memorable. There, he was asked whether the glamour of the BPL would decrease if Shakib Al Hasan could not play until the end.
In response, Farooq said, 'I cannot answer much about Shakib Al Hasan. I am not embarrassed that you ask me repeatedly. I want Shakib Al Hasan to play, but his matter is completely... and he is not able to come to the country for this reason. The Cricket Board is not involved in this in any way. It is not easy for me to answer this. The law enforcement agencies, wherever they are, will have to resolve this matter. Regarding Shakib's game in the Champions Trophy, Farooq said, "It is still on our list. I hope it can be resolved the way he wants. Of course, I think Shakib still has the ability to play for the national team." There were rumors of Shakib playing in the upcoming ODI series against the West Indies. But in the end, the game is not happening anymore. In this regard, the BCB president said, "Playing in a franchise league and playing for the country are not the same thing. I think Shakib is not mentally ready to play for the country."
