Cricket World Cup: Hashmatullah Shahidi factfile
Named as captain in May 2021, Hashmatullah Shahidi took over from Asghar Afghan whose second stint in the job lasted just 15 months as the Afghanistan Cricket Board indulged in the captaincy equivalent of musical chairs. Asghar had been replaced for the first time on the eve of the disastrous 2019 World Cup by Gulbadin Naib who oversaw nine defeats in nine games and lasted just six months before Asghar was recalled.
Left-handed batsman Hashmatullah became his country's first Test double centurion when he made an undefeated 200 on debut against India in 2018.
