Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan, who is currently suspended from cricket, head towards the football field. He played football and represented social football club Footy Hags in Dhaka.

Playing against the Korean Expat Team at the Bangladesh Army Stadium in Dhaka, Hasan's side won the match 3-2. Not the first time he is stepping on the football ground. He had last played for Bangladesh Tigers against Footy Hags at Old DOHS Ground in Dhaka. His team won that match by 4-1. 

If not for breaching ICC's Anti-Corruption Code he would be playing for Bangladesh on their tour to India. He was charged upon facing two approaches by a bookie, later identified as Deepak Aggarwal, during a tri-series between Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Zimbabwe in January 2018 and once during the IPL in April 2018.
