Shakib's county match tomorrow

Dhaka, 8 Sep -Shakib Al Hasan will play a four-day County  Championship game tomorrow (Monday) when his side Surrey will take on 

Somerset at Taunton. 

The ace allrounder is recruited for this game only in the County 
Championship. After the game, he will join the Bangladesh team in India for a 
series including two Tests and three T20 Internationals.

The four-day game is expected to give him a perfect preparation platform for 
the Test series against India.

Surrey are currently leading the point table with seven wins, three draws and 
just one defeat in 12 matches. Somerset are their closest rivals, occupying 
the second spot in the point table.

Several players who played for England will represent those two teams and so 
a highly competitive game is on the cards.

Shakib played any English county club as the first Bangladeshi in the 2009-
10. He played eight first-class matches for Worcestershire that time. He also 
played the NatWest T20 Blast for Leicestershire in 2013.

Shakib got NOC to play in the county from September 5 to 14.

The star allrounder headed to England, straight from Pakistan, where 
Bangladesh achieved a historic success, sweeping the two-match Test series 
against the hosts.
