Allrounder Shakib Al Hasan has added another feather to his illustrious career by becoming the only second cricketer in this planet to score 5000 runs and claim 400 wickets simultaneously in T20 cricket.
He achieved the feat in the match against Minister Group Dhaka in the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) on Monday at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium.
Shakib-led Fortune Barishal though lost the match by four wickets, the captain needed one wicket to reach the milestone and he duly did that.
To make the feat sweeter, he kept his teammate Dwayne Bravo witnessed of the achievement. Bravo in fact was the lone member of this high profile club of 5000 runs and 400 wickets. Now he got a member alongside him to savour.
