However, As being a BD Fan, Inshallah Shakib will achieve better things in his career and try to score half of the runs that Kallis has Scored: ODI (11,498) Half ( 5,749), Test (12,837) Half (6418). He should easily reach those targets and go beyond it, I really hope.
Someone should also explain to those morons that kallis is almost done with his carreer thus had plenty of time to get to where he is today. Where as shakib is just begining his carreer and still has 10-15 years left in him. Comparing Shakib to Kallis is a no brainer!

Obviously shakib is no where close to what kallis has achieved but looking at things he might not be too far (or might even be par/overtake) kallis on most of the stats once shakib retires- beside test cricket ofcorse cause we all know how the rest of the world don't bother playing test matches with us!!!
