Shakib Al Hasan's Mysterious Thread-Biting Habit Intrigues Fans

Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan's peculiar habit of biting on a mysterious thread attached to his helmet during the first Test against India in Chennai has sparked curiosity among fans and commentators alike.

Shakib's unusual behavior was first noticed on Day 2 of the match, as he came out to bat with Bangladesh struggling at 4/4. The experienced batter began his innings with a couple of boundaries, but it was the helmet string that caught everyone's attention.

Social media users quickly shared images of Shakib biting on the thread, speculating about its purpose. Former India cricketer Dinesh Karthik, who was commentating on the match, shed light on the reason behind Shakib's habit.

According to Karthik, who learned about it from former Bangladesh skipper Tamim Iqbal, the string helps Shakib keep his head straight and prevents it from dropping towards the leg side. Shakib has previously struggled with vision problems and has consulted an ophthalmologist in London.

Karthik also mentioned that Shakib has been seen biting his jersey during the Global T20 Canada. This suggests that the thread-biting habit may be a way for Shakib to cope with his eye issues.

Shakib's determination to overcome his vision problems is evident in his efforts to find solutions. The thread-biting habit may seem unconventional, but it demonstrates his commitment to addressing his challenges and improving his performance on the field.
