DHAKA: Retiring former skipper Shakib Al Hasan told local media on Thursday he was not returning to Bangladesh because of “a security issue”, potentially missing what he says will be his final match for his country. Shakib is among dozens from Hasina’s party facing murder investigations for a deadly police crackdown on protesters during the uprising. “I was to return home... but now I don’t think I can,” Shakib told broadcaster bdnews24.com. The broadcaster and other Bangladesh media said Shakib was in Dubai but would be heading to the US. Shakib was playing in a domestic T20 cricket competition in Canada when the regime collapsed and has not returned to Bangladesh since.
