‘We want to get Shakib out early’

Bangladesh star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has been in a rich vein of form with the bat in the ongoing cricket World Cup, becoming the highest run-getter in the tournament. He is making runs and making them fast with a lot of authority. Australia’s Alex Carey said that the plan is to get Shakib’s wicket early. Shakib is the batting’s mainstay at this World Cup and his wicket will not only be crucial in itself, it could also be a fatal blow to the Tigers’ morale. Carey said that Shakib is the big fish, considering the value he holds for the Tigers.
