Shakib in the form of his life
At the moment, it seems as though nothing can stop Shakib Al Hasan.
With two 'man-of-the-tournament' awards in the Bangladesh Premier League
and the Asia Cup, a vital contribution in the Indian Premier League and
a possible signing with former English county champions Essex, Shakib,
unlike the Magura Express, is on a roll this year.
It would be an
overstatement if one were to say that the IPL brought the best out of
the left-handed all-rounder. The tournament, however, did highlight the
qualities that have kept him on top of the rankings for such a long
time. It has also brought to light the new additions to his bowling
armoury.
By now it's quite obvious that players from weaker
international cricket teams need to fight extra hard to play in the IPL.
Considering the fact that the Kolkata Knight Riders had a long list of
foreign players which included the likes of Sunil Narine and Jacques
Kallis, it was always going to be difficult for Shakib to get into the
playing eleven. To no one's surprise, he did just that.
Shakib
played a more supporting role in the IPL this year. With Narine
dominating the bowling attack, it was up to him to stem the run flow.
After contributing to the initial victories of KKR, one bad game led to
his downfall. This followed a series of matches where the likes of
Marchant de Lange and Brendan McCullum were selected ahead of him.
However,
despite being dropped after the first few games, he fought his way back
into the squad with a match-winning performance against the Pune
Warriors. He responded to his captain's call by bowling in the Powerplay
-- a task that he is not used to -- and ended up getting the priceless
scalps of Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar. Such was the determination
that Shakib went on to find a place in the side for the final.
Perhaps
the most refreshing change was his ability to bowl the pinpoint
yorkers, a skill that will definitely help Mushfiqur Rahim's side in the
ICC World Twenty20s to take place in Sri Lanka later this year. Even
Mahendra Singh Dhoni's much anticipated "helicopter shot" couldn't do
much damage in the last over, bowled by Shakib, in the final.
Unfortunately,
the Bangladesh Cricket Board hasn't been able to complement Shakib's
good run. The left-hander's current form may be encouraging; however,
the two-month long gap in Bangladesh's domestic cricket has kept several
national players out of practice. While the upcoming tours to Europe
and Zimbabwe may prepare the national team for the ICC World Twenty20s,
domestic cricket continues to suffer.
While the IPL may not have
seen the best of Shakib, it did show his resilience and prove that he is
an even better player when under pressure, which are the trademark
characteristics of great cricketers.

Singer Imran has what it takes
Imran came into the spotlight by claiming the first runner-up podium
in the first ever 'Channel i Shera Konthho' in 2008. In the ranks of
80,000 contestants, Imran climbed the ladder with his singing talents
and won Taka 7 lakh and the love of thousands as the first runner-up.
His success in the competition ensured smooth passage into a
well-established career in singing. Imran is now living out his
childhood dream of becoming a singer and is turning a new page everyday.
Imran
got the opportunity to perform abroad, thanks to Channel i. As part of
several tours, Imran performed in Australia, Dubai, Oman, Qatar, the US,
Singapore, Bahrain and India.
Laser Vision released Imran's debut
album “Shopnoloke” in 2011, with the singer himself composing several
songs in the album.
Imran has also gathered experience as a
playback singer, lending his voice for seven films so far, four of which
have already been released. Imran says it was a great achievement for
him to work alongside a singer like Sabina Yasmin for a playback
performance. There is a plan to keep working on playbacks in the future,
the singer adds.
Asked on his next target, Imran informed that
his goal is to become a successful music composer and work to establish a
strong niche for himself in the music arena. Several compositions have
already been completed for popular singers of the time, while further
work with other artistes is on, Imran added.
What brought him to
the world of music? Imran answers that he has had a close link with
music since his early years. When he was in class 4, Imran began taking
his first music lessons from Ustad Shyamol Biswas. The ustad taught him
classical music. Then came Ranjit Kumar Mondol, who tutored Imran in the
skills of Nazrul Sangeet and also classical music. Finally it was the
turn of Shahjahan Kabir to add the final touches, as he taught Imran the
voice modulation for Adhunik songs.
Imran's mother provided the
main inspiration, as she could not pursue her interest in music due to
various reasons. Family support was also there throughout everything,
Imran says.
Imran adds that he enjoys the newfound fame, and asked
for blessings from his well-wishers so that he does not have a swollen
head.
Imran says music is his love and he doesn't wish to spend a
single second without it.
