This Day That Year: Shakib AL Hasan picks best figures in CPL history

-

The best all-rounder in limited-overs format from Bangladesh, Shakib AL Hasan picked the best figures in Caribbean Premier League history played at Bridgetown, Barbados on 3rd August 2013.

In this match, Trinidad and Tobago Red Steels captain Dwayne Bravo won the toss and decided to bat first. Shakib AL Hasan was bought into the attack in the 6th over and immediately struck by getting rid of experienced Ross Taylor. He did not allow Red Steels batsmen to score runs easily.

In his 3rd over, Shakib picked 3 wickets of Red Steels captain Dwayne Bravo, Nicolas Pooran and Kevin Cooper to leave Red Steels in big trouble at 40 for 7. He picked wickets of Samuel Badree and Kevin O Brien to bowl out Red Steels for a paltry total of 52 in 12.5 overs. Shakib finished with amazing figures of 6 for 6 in 4 overs in the inaugural season of the CPL.  

Shakib AL Hasan scored just 1 run for Barbados Tridents. Despite the struggle, Tridents won the match by 4 wickets with 72 balls to spare. For his record-breaking spell, he was awarded the man of the match. His 6 for 6 in 4 overs is still a record to date in CPL history. He finished as the 2nd leading wicket-taker in CPL 2013 with 11 wickets from 8 matches ( 8 innings) with an economy of 5.68.

The Bangladeshi all-rounder has played for 2 franchises so far in CPL. He made his debut for Barbados Tridents in 2013. He then featured for Jamaica Tallahwas from 2016-2017. Again from 2018-2019, he then featured for Barbados Tridents.  

Shakib AL Hasan has played 30 matches ( 25 innings) and scored 354 runs with the best score of 54*. AL Hasan hit only 1 half-century in CPL history. With the ball, he has taken 29 wickets from 30 matches ( 28 innings) with career-best figures of 6 for 6.

Barbados Tridents finished 3rd in the points table with 8 points. Under the captaincy of Kieron Pollard, Tridents lost to Jamaica Tallahaws during the 2nd Semi-finals.
