“I am not sure where I am going next, but it is almost sure that I am not going home,” Shakib told ESPNcricinfo via WhatsApp.
Shakib is in the Bangladesh Test squad for the match after the selectors said that they received a “green signal” to select him. Shakib had reportedly been assured of safe passage into Bangladesh, but students started protesting his imminent arrival from Wednesday evening.
A group recognizing themselves as “Mirpur Chhatro Janata” informed the BCB that they will protest Shakib’s appearance in the stadium. Late into Wednesday evening, Shakib was reportedly informed to wait in Dubai where he was transiting from New York.
Although Shakib’s flight is on Thursday evening, he is unlikely to come to Dhaka.
