Amid the uncertainty over his future, all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan on Thursday was handed an all-format contract because the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) introduced a 21-member record of centrally-contracted cricketers for the 2022 season.
The Bangladesh Cricket Board BCB) on Wednesday granted relaxation to Shakib from all types of worldwide cricket until April 30 to get better from psychological and bodily fatigue and there have been clouds over his profession with the nationwide group. However, an all-format contract clears the air concerning his availability for Bangladesh’s worldwide matches sooner or later.
The announcement was made hours earlier than Shakib’s arrival from UAE and the cricketer is predicted to sit down with the BCB president Nazmul Hasan to debate his future.
According to a report in Cricbuzz, the all-rounder had verbally assured them that he will probably be obtainable for the nationwide group throughout codecs after he was given a break from the tour of South Africa. However, a BCB official mentioned that the board is not going to pay wage to a cricketer for the timeframe he’s unavailable until he’s injured.
“If anybody is unavailable to carry out nationwide obligation aside from damage in that case he is not going to be paid for that timeframe when the group is taking part in,” he said.
Shakib is among only five cricketers, also including Shoriful Islam, Taskin Ahmed, Mushfiqur Rahim and Liton Das, to be handed the all-format contracts. The board introduced a format-specific contract system from last year.
Tamim Iqbal and Mehedy Hasan earned contracts in Tests and ODIs while Mahmudullah, Mustafizur Rahman and Afif Hossain earned a contract for ODIs and T20Is.
The likes of Yasir Ali and Mahmudul Hasan are the only two new faces in the contract list as they are included for Tests. Mohammad Saifuddin, Abu Jayed, Saif Hassan, Soumya Sarkar and Shamim Hossain failed to make the cut while Taijul Islam is given only a Test contract although he was included in ODIs over the last year.
