BIG FELLAS!
THE WEEK India|October 08, 2023
In a World Cup which is expected to be a tropical storm of runs and tall totals fuelled by T20-inspired sixes, you ignore the double-duty, multi-tasking disrupter at your peril. Be it the pure all-rounder or the leaders of either bowling packs or teams themselves, those who can bring their best or bring out the best in their teammates during clutch games will have impact that reverberates through the tournament. Here is the impact player from each team.

BIG FELLAS!

SHAKIB AL HASAN

Bangladesh

Is there any aspect of Bangladesh cricket that Shakib Al Hasan has not had an impact on during his 17-year career? The left-hander has gone from Bangladesh's lone star all-rounder into role model extraordinaire for his countrymen and for the second time now, his country's World Cup captain. Shakib now leads Bangladesh in all three formats, his career marking the highlights among his country's top performers. In ODIS, Shakib is Bangladesh's leading wicket-taker (308) and its third-highest run scorer (7,384). He has more World Cup runs and wickets than any of his compatriots. A cricketer with great pride of performance and a pursuer of excellence, Shakib must at once become captain, leader, legend at India 2023. Bangladesh have had a so-so 2023, their home series defeat to Afghanistan being a bit of a downer. If there ever is a time and if there ever is a man who can pull them out of their funk, it is Shakib.
