Star Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan made an excellent debut for Surrey Cricket Club by taking four wickets against Somerset in an English County Cricket Championship match at Taunton on Monday.
Shakib bowled 33.5 overs to take 4-97 as Somerset were dismissed for 317 after playing 95.5 overs. It meant Shakib bowled one third of Somerset鈥檚 innings, which was a testament to his superb fitness.
Tom Banton scored 132 as Somerset were in position of dominance before Shakib intervened.
Shakib, though, couldn鈥檛 take the wicket of Banton, but his controlled bowling gave the other Surrey bowlers to dominate Somerset.
Shakib will play this only match in his only stint in the English County Championship this season. After this match, he will join the Bangladesh national team in India, where they will play two Tests and three T20 Internationals.
