In Surrey, Shakib will join forces with England stars Rory Burns and Dom Sibley, with Rory Burns leading the team. Somerset's squad features notable players such as Tom Abell, Tom Banton, Craig Overton, Josh Davey, Jack Ball, Jack Leach, and Archie von.
Following his stint with Surrey, Shakib will head to India for the national team's assignments. The Test series against India is set to commence on September 19 in Chennai. The Bangladeshi squad, led by Najmul Hossain Shanto, is expected to arrive in India on September 15.
Despite facing a murder case allegation, Shakib Al Hasan has maintained his performance on the field, and his cricketing prowess remains unaffected by the political turmoil. The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) continues to support Shakib, who remains focused on his upcoming series and commitments.
