Shakib's 5/21 and his 26-ball 42 was the standout performance as he led Bangladesh to a 36-run win against West Indies, levelling the three-match series 1-1.
Bangladesh restricted West Indies to 195-9 on a sluggish wicket, before their batsmen comfortably chased the target with 89 balls to spare.
Mahmudullah shared 56 runs for the ninth wicket with Taijul Islam (26) and 36 with No. 11 batsman Nayeem Hasan (12 not out), to propel Bangladesh past 500 for the ninth time.

Left-arm spinner Taijul Islam did the most damage, taking 6-33, his fourth five-for in the last six innings, to wrap up the visitors for 139 while they were chasing the target of 204.
Shakib is the quickest to 3,000 runs and 200 wickets, achieving the feat in his 54th Test to eclipse English all-rounder Ian Botham who reached it in his 55th Test.
