After the Kanpur Test, veteran Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan received an autographed bat from India's top batsman Virat Kohli, in recognition of his remarkable career. This comes after Shakib's probable final Test match for Bangladesh. With his homage, Kohli honored the enormous achievements Shakib has made to cricket, marking a respectful exchange between two of the sport's greatest players.
Shakib Al Hasan had stated ahead of the Kanpur Test that he would not be picked for Bangladesh's home Test matches, meaning that the second Test against India might be his final in the longest format. A heartfelt chat between Kohli and Shakib was witnessed during the post-match presentation, as India celebrated their series triumph. A memorable moment was then marked by the particular bat exchange.
India beat Bangladesh and won the series by 2-0
On October 1, India won the second Test match by a dominant seven wickets, securing a 2-0 series triumph. Shakib had a quiet series overall, but he was very impressive in the first Kanpur Test innings, claiming figures of 4/78. Even if Shakib hasn't played well with the bat or the ball in this series, his career achievements in Test cricket are still remarkable.
Shakib leaves a lasting legacy if this was, in fact, his last Test. Shakib is among Bangladesh's best cricketers with 4609 runs and 246 wickets in 71 Test matches. He is now revered not just in Bangladesh but also around the world of cricket due to his exceptional all-around skills.
With his gesture, Virat Kohli emphasized the respect and unity that exist amongst people despite their rivalry in sports. It was an appropriate remembrance of Shakib's stellar Test career, honoring the accomplishments of a player who will always be remembered for his impact on the sport. Now India will play three match T20I series with Bangladesh which is starting 6th of October.
