Shakib Al Hasan and MahmudullahShakib Al Hasan remains loved and will be welcomed with open arms, says Bangladesh T20 captain Mahmudullah.
“We loved Shakib, still love Shakib and will continue loving Shakib. We will welcome him with open arms when he comes back,” he told Indian media on Saturday (Nov 2).
His remarks came while responding to queries on the International Cricket Council banning Shakib from all forms of cricket for failing to report an approach by a bookie on Oct 29.
Mahmudullah strongly claimed Shakib indeed ‘made a mistake but never committed a crime.’
“We are focusing on winning tomorrow’s match rather than this issue,” he said.
The skipper advised the younger cricketers to perform, contribute and stand for the team in absence of the left-handed all-rounder.
