Sports Desk: When the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) comes, there is a kind of tussle with Shakib Al Hasan and Mashrafe Bin Mortaza. One is the best captain of BPL, the other is the best player. But this year's BPL has changed the story! Shakib-Mashrafi has come to the discussion, but it is not because of which team will play for how much. The question has arisen, can the two cricket stars of the country play in BPL at all? Mohammad Ashraful, the first superstar of Bangladesh cricket, spoke about this issue on the camera of Jamuna Television .

This season itself, how Mashrafe played in the BPL in the previous season; Ashraful was surprised by that. Ashraful will continue even if he only stands on the field, such a request of the Sylhet Strikers management is irrelevant.

Ashraful said, "This is certainly not expected in a tournament like BPL, where a team will field a player just for the sake of name."

However, the situation is different for Shakib. Performance is never an issue for him, almost every season he is in the running for the best of the tournament. However, the fear of Shakib returning to Bangladesh to play for the country due to his political identity is also very painful for the player.

However, Mashrafe expressed his position in an interview after the change of government. No such thing from Shakib yet. Ashraful thinks that if Shakib had clarified his position, the situation would have been under the control of the world's best all-rounder. Source: Jamuna Television
