DHAKA: The craze of all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has touched another height with the victory of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) over Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in their last match of IPL.
Shakib has been termed “Superman” in the latest article on the blog of Kolkata Knight Riders’ (KKR) site.
The article titled “Comic Book Counterparts!” praised him highly saying, “And unlike Superman, we are yet to find his Kryptonite!”
It said: “Shakib al Hasan - The Bangladeshi boy, whose fans can’t stop chanting his name, is KKR’s Superman! There’s nothing he can’t do. He bowls those tight overs, smacks the opposition out of the park and is a handful in the field. And unlike Superman, we are yet to find his Kryptonite!”
The article also compared Gautam Gambhir with Batman, Robin Uthappa as Batman’s partner Robin, Jacques Kallis with Captain America (minus the 'America' bit), Yusuf Pathan with Bruce Banner and Sunil Narine with Spider-Man.
