NEWS WAVE INDIA: Bangladesh cricket team captain, Shakib Al Hasan, has informed his IPL franchise, Kolkata Knight Riders, of his unavailability for the entire ongoing season due to international commitments and personal reasons. According to a report by ESPNCricinfo, he has also decided to opt out of IPL 2023 for the same reasons.
As a result, Kolkata Knight Riders are now in the process of seeking a replacement for the all-rounder. Shakib has been an integral part of the Kolkata Knight Riders team, playing for the franchise since 2011, and his absence will undoubtedly be felt by the team.
Shakib has been in excellent form in recent times, scoring runs and taking wickets consistently for the Bangladesh cricket team. He is expected to play a crucial role in the upcoming T20 World Cup, and his absence from the IPL will allow him to focus on his international commitments.
This development comes as a setback for the Kolkata Knight Riders, who are currently struggling in the IPL 2022 season. The team is now left with the task of finding a suitable replacement for Shakib, who has been a reliable performer for them over the years.
