“Assalamu Alaikum everyone,

Recently, a statement of mine in the media has created quite a discussion. I would like to clearly explain my position to everyone. At this moment, my full focus is solely on cricket. At this final stage of my career, I want to give my absolute best for the Bangladesh national team and, if given the opportunity, deliver some memorable performances for my country.

Politics is extremely important for the development of a nation. After concluding my cricket career, I would like to contribute to my country’s progress. However, that does not necessarily have to be only through politics. It is possible to serve the country in other ways as well. Still, it is true that working through politics can make many things easier.

I hope I can end my cricket career with a smile on my face while wearing the red and green jersey. For that, I seek the prayers and love of all the people of Bangladesh.”
