Watch: Shakib Al Hasan loses his cool during promotional event, beats a fan mercilessly with cap

Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib al Hasan has again roped himself into a controversy after he was seen hitting a fan during a promotional event in Chattogram. Hasan was surrounded by the fans before he lost his cool in the tumult and hit the person in the crowd with the cap multiple times.

Hasan is known for his aggressive behaviour on the field. He has often been seen fighting and arguing with the umpires many times for their decisions. He has indulged in verbal arguments with the opposition players most of the time. There is also a rift between him and Tamim Iqbal as confirmed by the Bangladesh Cricket Board President Nazmul Hassan last month.
