Shakib was banned for two years for breaching the ICC Anti-Corruption Code.
Bangladesh’s star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan was banned from all formats of cricket for two years by International Cricket Council (ICC) with one-year of that suspended, for breaching the ICC Anti-Corruption Code.
After the Bangladesh captain accepted the charges, former England skipper Michael Vaughan who is known for being active on Twitter and commenting on a lot of cricket related issues, tweeted out saying that the two-year ban is not enough and it should have been longer.
