BAN vs IRE : Shakib returned with the regret of the century

Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan was facing the Irish bowlers fluently. But it is not that you are not doing a little mistake sometimes. Just 13 runs away from the century, the all-rounder made one such mistake. He was caught in the palm of the wicketkeeper while playing a ball outside the off-stump. Earlier, he scored his last century in white on March 14, 2017. The long 6-year century has not been spent even today.

Earlier, the world's best all-rounder scored his fifth century against Sri Lanka in Colombo. After that, the wait for his sixth century is not over! On this day, the way Shakib was playing aggressively from the beginning at Mirpur Shere-e Bangla Stadium, it seemed that his wait was about to end. But the ultra-aggressive attitude is his tomorrow!

Shakib was caught behind the wicket for 87 after hitting Andy McBrien's off stump. Earlier, Shakib picked up his 31st fifty in white in just 45 balls. He hit two consecutive fours to complete his fifty. Later, Shakib hit 14 fours to make 87 runs off 111 balls. Shakib's departure broke his partnership of 159 runs with Mushfiqur.

Liton Das has come to bat at the crease with Mushfiqur Rahim at the moment after Shakib's departure. Mushfiqur is currently unbeaten on 69 runs. On the other hand, Bangladesh need 15 more runs to match Ireland's collection.
