Shakib's recent run drought is a serious concern for Bangladesh. He is one of our pillars in batting. We need his batting contribution as equally as his bowling. He can have a free go playing in KKR or Worc where there are many genuine batsmen but this is not the case with Bangladesh team.
Moreover, we have more SLAs than any other clubs/national teams. Many of them can make up his poor bowling performance in a match but no other can make up his poor batting performance. We have limited resources when it comes to batting.
Another important factor is his way of getting out. If he plays sensibly then i wont be bothered much about his run drought but he is getting out in a reckless manner which is bit worrying. Now, who says, its T20 and we should not be bothered about his batting, I don't agree with them. Regardless of formation of game, when a batsman does not get runs and gets out poorly, it will certainly have a negative effect on his other game as well.
