New Delhi. Bangladesh cricket team all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has announced his retirement from Test cricket. After the Bangladesh violence, many cricketers had to face the anger of the protesters. The house of former captain Mashrafe Mortaza was burnt. At the same time, Shakib has also raised questions regarding his safety. BCB Chief has said that we will not guarantee Shakib's safety.
Bangladesh Cricket Board chief Farooq said, “BCB police is not a security agency like RAB (Rapid Action Battalion). We have not talked to the government in any way about this. His case is a bit serious. We can't do anything about it. Shakib's security is not in the hands of the board. We will not guarantee this. The board cannot provide personal security to any player. He will have to take a decision in this regard. “His protection must come from the highest levels of government.”
