The selectors said Sabbir’s inclusion in the new plan was a makeshift opener in T20. Joining the Asia Cup, Sabbir was brought down to open in the Sri Lanka match. But this Rajshahi cricketer could not take advantage of the opportunity. In the first match, he got out after scoring 5 runs in 6 balls. In the next match, he could not open the account of runs, he conceded 3 balls. After that, he started the game with 12 from 9 balls in the tri-series against Pakistan. However, he returned to the dressing room after scoring 14 runs off 18 balls.

He did not get on the plane to Australia for such a bad performance. Sabbir has been cut from the World Cup team leaving Soumya. He returned home on Saturday. After returning home, Sabbir accepted the sarcasm on social media. How he was returned to the national team without showing any performance, the question arises again.

Sabbir came on Facebook Live on Sunday night to silence the critics. He explained the reason for bringing him back to the national team after three years. Sabbir said life, ‘There are many trolls, talk and news about me for several days. See I played well in Dhaka Premier League. I played well on the West Indies tour for Bangladesh ‘A’ team. That’s why I was in the Asia Cup, in the United Arab Emirates; after that, the selectors kept him in the World Cup team. If I didn’t perform, I wouldn’t have been called for the Asia Cup-World Cup. If I had the opportunity to do something human, I would not have sat for three years.’

After this, the batter frankly admitted his failure. He said, “Unfortunately, I could not do anything in four matches. But for which I was excluded. I am not at all unhappy about it. I have no regrets. I have no emotions.”
