Yes, his captaincy was up to the mark.
I liked the way he handled Riyad. After getting 3 wickets, other captains may have continued Riyad for the rest of the day. But Sakib did not. Riyad is not a specialist bowler who has the practice of bowling huge spells. So, he rested Riyad in between, that made Riyad's spinning fingers come to full force and had the best out of Riyad. That was a good one for me.
