Big blow. Question is, who will replace him. We don't have any other all rounders.

I am reading it differently than all of you guys. I do not think it's anybody's fault reading this from Isam's report on CI:
"He first complained of pain in his shin during Bangladesh's Test series against West Indies in November last year. He was immediately given rest and recovered in time for the Bangladesh Premier League, but he missed a couple of games in the tournament and afterwards was seen bowling off a very short run-up.
Towards the end of the tournament, Shakib was diagnosed with exertional compartment syndrome on his shin bone, a condition that can be caused by frequent running, and leads to pain and swelling. After the final, he admitted that his movement was restricted.
As a result, he was sent to Australia on February 20 where a specialist suggested he undergo the surgery to reduce stiffness in the injured area."
I guess Shak missed WI ODI because of the pain he had during test so rest was advised. He took his rest and felt better and played in BPL. But his pain was back during BPL which was why he missed a couple of games and bowled with short run-up. Since his pain was not going away he had to go for the final check up before deciding on a surgery. I am sure he was trying his best to not have a surgery, can you blame him? I am not sure if his problem could've been avoided with proper rehab without going through "kata-chhira" on his shin, most likely NO.
