While playing his first match for Bangladesh in T20 World Cup 2024, he scored 8 runs. His condition worsened in the second match, he scored only 3 runs. Now when he scored a half-century against Netherlands in the third match, look at Shakib Al Hasan's arrogance and he asks who is Virender Sehwag? Yes, this incident is from the press conference held after Bangladesh and Netherlands, where Shakib said this in arrogance while getting angry over a question. Now know why he said so?

It is not that Shakib Al Hasan would not have heard Virender Sehwag's name or would not know him. In such a situation, the reason for his anger was Sehwag raising questions. Actually, the former Indian opener had raised questions on Shakib after his failure in the first two matches of the T20 World Cup. When Bangladesh lost to South Africa by 114 runs, Sehwag questioned Shakib and said that you are a Bangladeshi player, not Hayden or Gilchrist. You should play like that. Not only this, Sehwag even suggested him to retire.

Who is Virender Sehwag? - Shakib asked

Now when Shakib scored an unbeaten 64 off 46 balls against Netherlands in the very next match and was also awarded the Player of the Match, he tried to answer what Sehwag had said. In the press conference, a reporter wanted to know Shakib's answer to the question raised by Sehwag, so before he could finish speaking, Shakib asked - Who is Virender Sehwag?

Shakib's reaction tells the whole story!

The way Shakib said 'Who is Virender Sehwag', it was clear that he did not like his words. He is unhappy with Sehwag's criticism. This arrogance after getting out in an innings is fine. But Shakib also has to keep in mind which team he has scored against. If he had shown such arrogance by scoring against a strong team like South Africa, then things would have been different.

Well, there is no doubt that Shakib has the ability. Because if it were not so, he would not have been the only player to score 800 plus runs and take more than 40 wickets in the World Cup in both ODI and T20 formats.
