Wanting to be Anil Kapoor's 'Nayak' for a day to change everything that's wrong with BPL, sending stumps cartwheeling in disgust with a left-footed pile driver or pushing the envelope of 'Spirit of Cricket' by getting a player 'Timed Out', Shakib Al Hasan was perhaps never in running for winning game's "Mr Congeniality" contest.
But when it comes to cricketing pedigree, his 14,271 international runs with 14 hundreds, 708 wickets and 119 catches across 446 international games in last 17 years, puts him on a pedestal which will be difficult to surpass for Bangladeshi cricketers of coming generations as he gets ready to bid adieu to international cricket.
In 50 overs cricket especially where Bangladesh as a team found its mojo, he was peerless with 7,500 plus runs and 300 plus scalps.
