I Am Confused- Shakib On His Troubled Eyes

In the ongoing BPL Shakib al Hasan is playing more as a spinner rather than an all-rounder for Rangpur Riders considering and did not came to bat on two occasions as he is troubled seeing the ball while batting as his gets blurred at times. 

Shakib is struggling with his eyes since the last World Cup and it remained the same for him in the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League T20 tournament where he is featuring for Rangpur Riders.

Shakib said that he feels that he will be more comfortable once he start making runs while added that the experience of playing as a spinner instead of an all-rounder is something totally new to him.

“The more I score runs, I will be more comfort. I can’t find the rhythm when there are no runs,” said Shakib.

 “I have never done this in my life (like) just playing with one side. It is the first time and I feel for Rangpur Riders. I am only able to fulfill half of their expectations,” he said.

“I want to thank the way they have handled the situation. I am proud of playing for this franchise,” he said adding that he realized when thing are not going his way it becomes tough in the middle while he insisted that he is yet to give up his hope.

“I realized that when the time is bad, everything goes bad,” he said. 

“I am not thinking anything else (like quitting cricket) and now I am trying (to make a comeback) and let me finish my effort and later will think about it,” he said adding that he is not too sure when his eyes will improve. 

 “I don’t know when this (eyes) will improve. This thing that you are repeating about my eye, eye, eye, eye. There’s no problem in the eye. What you see wearing spectacles, I can see better than you. We are trying to find what has gone wrong,” said Shakib. 

“I went to Singapore to see what happened to my eyes and body and we are trying to find out where the problem is,” he said adding that he is not too sure whether trying different thing is having an impact on him or not.

“At times I feel that whether it(stress) is increasing( trying too many things) or whether doing this or that will be right or not. Now how I can find it out can you tell me? 

“I am also confused with it (whether I am doing the right thing or not),” he concluded.
