The Kanpur Test can be assumed to be Shakib's last until the team for the South Africa series is announced. Shakib's security assurance - the terms are yet to be decided. However, the response from the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) and the government; Shakib's chances of retirement in the country are slim.
According to what the head coach Chandika Hathurusinghe said, the possibility of hope in Shakib's country cannot be ruled out at once. All in all, the matter is in a state of flux. In the meantime, the new news, more than half of the Tiger all-rounder's salary!
Shakib retired from T20 for 2024 World Cup. If Kanpur is the last Test, Shakib will no longer be part of the central contract for the two editions. And BCB pays cricketers separately according to edition and category.
Shakib is in the 'A' plus category in the three-version contract. His salary is 4.5 lakh in Test, 4 lakh in ODI and 3.5 lakh in T20. If a cricketer's name is in three editions, then according to the category, he gets 100% of the first edition, 50% of the second edition and 40% of the third edition.
According to this, Shakib used to get a salary of 7 lakh 30 thousand rupees per month. Apart from this, the cricketers get additional allowance if they fulfill the quota of playing a certain number of matches in the three editions. With this allowance, Shakib used to get more than lakhs of rupees every month. Shakib's name is automatically removed from the contract due to talk of retirement from Test and T20. Also the salary of two versions will be stopped.
Shakib would have received 4.5 lakh from the Test contract and 40% of the T20, ie 140,000 taka. Shakib will not get the money for these two editions. Shakib will get Rs 4 lakh per month for ODI contract only.
