Quality over from Shakib

Back in the ranks after being stripped of the captaincy, Shakib Al-Hassan bowled a fantastic over 8 overs into Bangladesh's Twenty20 with Pakistan. His end economy rate of 6 an over doesn't look amazing, although good, but the way he bowled a wicket maiden to a relatively set batsman in Hafeez was fantastic. A turning wicket yes, but he bamboozled Hafeez throughout the over by pitching the ball on middle and leg and passing the outside edge time and time again. Then final ball of the over he bowled the arm ball and bowled him.

A fantastic exhibition of how to bowl in any format!
