Shakib made new T20 captain

Bangladesh get 3 skippers for 3 formats

Bangladesh cricket is going to see three different captains in three formats of the cricket for the first time after the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) appointed Shakib Al Hasan as the skipper of the T20 cricket. 

The BCB took the decision during their first executive meeting of this year yesterday. The post went vacant after Mashrafe retired from the T20 International during the series against Sri Lanka in the first week of this month. 
As the deputy of Mashrafe in this format, Shakib Al Hasan was favourite to get the post and it was no different. The board considered his experience and impact in this format to announce the successor of Mashrafe. 
Mushfiqur Rahim is the captain of Test format while Mashrafe remains captain in the ODI cricket. 
“Shakib was the deputy of Mashrafe in this format. So it was natural that he would take the job,” said BCB president Nazmul Hassan Papon, emerging out from the meeting yesterday.  “We hope his experience and impact would bring up goods for the team.”
Bangladesh first introduced spilt captaincy in 2014 as Mushfiqur who was by then captain of all format, was stripped off the captaincy from ODI and T20. Mashrafe Bin Mortaza, who kept him away from Test format, took over the role in those two formats. 
The captaincy however is not new for Shakib Al Hasan. Shakib took on the captaincy for the first time during a tour of the West Indies in 2009 when the regular captain Mashrafe Mortaza was injured, and kept it due to Mortaza’s prolonged absence until July 2010 when he stood down to focus on his personal performance.
However, the reappointed Mortaza broke down again during the first game against New Zealand in October 2010 with Shakib once more taking over. He held the post through the World Cup – co-hosted by Bangladesh.
Shakib was dropped as the Bangladesh captain following the team’s disappointing performance in Zimbabwe in September 2011. Shakib, along with his deputy Tamim Iqbal, paid the price for Bangladesh’s 130-run defeat in the solitary Test in Harare and a 3-2 defeat in the one-day series.
