Published on: Friday 05 July 2019
Bangladesh's Shakib Al Hasan became the third batsman in the World Cup history to score more than 600 runs after India's Sachin Tendulkar and Australia's Matthew Hayden.
All-rounder Shakib scored his seventh half-century of the tournament, equalling Tendulkar's record of 2003, before slashing wildly at a ball from Shaheen and being caught behind for 64.
That knock made Shakib the highest-scoring batsman of the World Cup with 606 runs.
