Shakib-Al-Hasan

Bangladesh skipper Shakib-Al-Hasan has made the headlines primarily for his outburst rather than his cricketing action these days. Notably, the great all-rounder, who is very well known for his anger on the cricket pitch, is in trouble once again.

However, this time, he had been elected to the parliamentary election. The great all-rounder was spotted slapping the fan in the video that went viral on social media, making bold headlines for his action. In the video, a fan is seen unintentionally pushing Bangladesh star Shakib-Al-Hasan, which makes him furious and slaps the person violently in the face. Notably, the fans expressed displeasure with this act.

According to reports, the 36-year-old cricketer was headed to a polling place to vote his ballot when the incident occurred. However, the viral clip highlights the chaotic scene as Shakib Al-Hasan is surrounded by people. In addition, it’s clear from this clip that Shakib Al Hasan felt he had assumed charge of the situation, though it’s unclear what it was that the fan did that angered him and made him slap the person.

Meanwhile, just two days ago, the Dhaka-born cricketer was sitting on a stage when people came up to take selfies with him. However, there was an obvious lack of joy on his face as he complied with their requests, hinting that he might not have been overly enthusiastic about the frequent breaks from photographs.

If I haven’t retired, then where does this question come from?: Shakib-Al-Hasan

Meanwhile, Shakib-Al-Hasan expressed his happiness about winning the parliamentary election on Monday. In addition, the 36-year-old cricketer highlighted that he had no chance of retiring from cricket despite winning the election.

“It was a landslide victory. The competition and challenges are always there, be it a small team or a big team. Did I retire?” If I haven’t retired, then where does this question come from?” Shakib-Al-Hasan said being quoted by Times of India.
