Shakib listed at second highest base price for The Hundred draft
Shakib Al Hasan
Among the Bangladeshi players, Shakib Al Hasan has set the highest base price of £120,000. The star all-rounder, who has been out of the national setup recently, remains ineligible to play for Bangladesh due to political reasons. Despite serving a bowling ban from his stint with Surrey in English county cricket, tournament organizers have still placed him in the second-highest base price category.
