Shakib Al Hasan, the accomplished all-rounder from Bangladesh, is eyeing a role in politics and has been confirmed as a nominee for the parliamentary elections by the ruling Awami League, reports ESPNcricinfo.
The 36-year-old is throwing his hat into the political ring, vying for the Magura-1 constituency in elections slated for January 7, 2024. Despite nursing a finger injury from the recently concluded ODI World Cup 2023, the seasoned all-rounder remains determined.
