Same opponents, same ground and it's Shakib's home ground.

In India-Bangladesh Match :
Ashwin : 2/15
Shakib : 1, 0/26

And Ashwin was MoM.

Make your own judgement ...

Fair enough. Ash is a great all round bowler in sub continental condition especially in 20-20 and odi. Though the stats will suggest that he is probably the fastest 100 wicket getter In ind but still I m not so sure about his bowling effectiveness and capability in test arena. And keep in mind he plays in a great team where his team mates give him enough runs to defend and also his captain is not the best but still a good tactician who can set fields according to the situation. On the other hand Sakib plays under such a sissy who doesn’t have a clue about field placing.
