He actually said the same to Manoj Tiwari ... See in his PA interview above.. He also predicted the same during the Asia Cup against India when he got out.. Such is his confidence !!!

"In those tense moments at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Shakib Al Hasan suddenly turned to Manoj Tiwary and insisted that adding the finishing touches to the contest would fall on their shoulders. The Bengal middle-order batsman reveals to have not taken his teammate’s suggestion too seriously, considering how comfortably Manvinder Bisla and Jacques Kallis seemed to be guiding KKR to victory. But as fate would have it, Shakib’s words came true, as the former Bangladesh captain was joined by Tiwary in the middle with Kolkata still requiring 16 runs off the last seven deliveries.
Tiwary said that it also helped that Shakib Al Hasan was batting at the other end. Since both can speak in fluent Bengali, the communication was far better."
"For starters, adds Tiwary, he still couldn’t believe that Shakib had predicted the outcome so conclusively. He wasn’t complaining though. "

"We (Manoj and Shakib) were talking in Bengali, true. Especially, Shakib was telling me to that "we can win this just have to stick to our job and play the shots. We decided not to panic and just focus on winning the match for KKR."

Sakib al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal, the two star performers of Victoria Sporting Club, preferred to travel to Bogra today, for their next Dhaka Premier League match, by helicopter instead of the team bus, said an official.
Victoria will take on Gazi Tank Cricketers, both teams on 18 points from 12 matches, in their crunch match at the Shaheed Chandu Stadium on Saturday.
‘They will join us in the evening through a helicopter they will get from a personal friend,’ Nesaruddin Ahmed, joint secretary of Victoria, told New Age on Thursday.
‘We are fine with that as we don’t have any cost involved
for providing them with a helicopter,’ said Nesar.
Moc bhai, this article is a little misleading. I read the same news somewhere else yesterday.
It's not that they abandoned the team bus coz they prefer flying.
আগামীকাল গাজী ট্যাংক ক্রিকেটার্সের বিপক্ষে ভিক্টোরিয়ার ম্যাচ বগুড়ার শহীদ চান্দু স্টেডিয়ামে। এ ম্যাচ খেলতে সড়কপথে আজ সকাল ৯টায় ভিক্টোরিয়ার ক্রিকেটাররা বগুড়ার পথে রওনা হয়ে যাচ্ছেন। তাঁদের জন্য এসি বাসের ব্যবস্থাও করেছে ক্লাব। তবে দুজনেরই কী এক অনুষ্ঠানে যোগ দেওয়ার কথা থাকায় সাকিব-তামিম বগুড়ায় যেতে চান আজ বিকেলে। নিসারউদ্দিন জানিয়েছেন, 'একটা অনুষ্ঠান থাকায় ওরা দুজন দলের সঙ্গে বগুড়ায় যেতে পারছে না। যাদের অনুষ্ঠান, তারাই বোধহয় সাকিব-তামিমকে হেলিকপ্টারে বগুড়ায় পৌঁছে দেবে। এ হেলিকপ্টার ভ্রমণের সঙ্গে ভিক্টোরিয়া ক্লাবের কোনো সম্পর্ক নেই।' ঘরোয়া ক্রিকেটে তারকা ক্রিকেটারদের হেলিকপ্টার ভ্রমণ অবশ্য বাংলাদেশে নতুন নয়। গত ফেব্রুয়ারিতে হওয়া বাংলাদেশ প্রিমিয়ার লিগের (বিপিএল) এক অনুষ্ঠানেও 'আইকন' ক্রিকেটারদের হেলিকপ্টার ভ্রমণ করিয়েছিলেন আয়োজকরা।
^ but it sounds more juicy if the readers thinks Tamim and Shakib left the team behind. Dhurro mufi bhai dilen tow bechara journalist er shob plan nosto kore.
For the last 3/4 days there was about 3 instance I have heard road accident took 8/9 lives, I know this is a everyday thing in Bangladesh but lately the accidents are happening more often. Honestly if I had the money I would avoid road journey in Bangladesh and I wont even feel guilty. Don't get me wrong I love Bangladesh but roads are getting worse every day, adding to that are drivers who don't follow rules and regulation, 99% of them have no idea about highway code.
