As the cricketing world gears up for the much-anticipated ICC T20 World Cup next month in the USA and the West Indies, two stalwarts are set to etch their names in the annals of cricketing history. Bangladesh's dynamic all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan and India's charismatic captain Rohit Sharma are poised to make their ninth appearance in the tournament, a feat unparalleled by any other cricketers.
Rohit Sharma, already named as the skipper of the Indian squad, brings with him a wealth of experience and leadership prowess, poised to lead his team to glory on the world stage. Meanwhile, Shakib Al Hasan, a force to be reckoned with both bat and ball, is expected to grace the Bangladeshi squad provided he remains fit—a prospect that adds an extra layer of anticipation for fans eagerly awaiting the team's announcement.
Their journey began way back in 2007, during the inaugural edition of the T20 World Cup in South Africa, where Shakib and Rohit first showcased their talents on the global stage. Since then, through skill, determination, and unwavering commitment to the game, they have become synonymous with T20 cricket excellence.
In achieving this milestone, Shakib and Rohit join an elite club of cricketers who have left an indelible mark on the T20 World Cup stage. The likes of West Indies' Chris Gayle and Dwayne Bravo, along with Bangladesh's Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahmudullah, have also made significant contributions, appearing in the tournament's initial seven editions.
As cricket aficionados eagerly await the unfolding drama and excitement of the upcoming T20 World Cup, all eyes will undoubtedly be on Shakib Al Hasan and Rohit Sharma as they embark on their historic ninth campaign, ready to captivate audiences with their remarkable skills and unwavering passion for the game.
