NEW DELHI: Bangladesh star cricketer Shakib Al Hasan secured a parliamentary seat in a resounding win during Sunday's general election, which was boycotted by the opposition.
The 36-year-old all-rounder, who captains the national team across all formats, triumphed over his opponent by a staggering margin of over 150,000 votes in Magura, a western town in his constituency, as confirmed by the district's chief administrator, Abu Naser Beg.
