He was chosen to represent Islampur and, after previously using a taped tennis ball, took a wicket with his first delivery using a proper cricket ball. He trained for six months at Bangladesh Krira Shikkha Protishtan, a government-run athletic facility.
In 2003’s ACC Under-17 Cup, Shakib made his Under-17 debut against the UAE Under-17s, recording a bowling performance of 3-18 in 8 overs (with two maiden overs).

Shakib first played for Bangladesh at the Under-19 level in November 2005 against India Under-19 in the 2005 Afro-Asia Under-19 Cup.
