Hat’s off on Bangladesh :
Bangladesh pounded visiting Australia by 20 runs in the first cricket test concluded on the 4th day to take the lead in the series. The result proves that determination and psychological warfare can bring miracle in any discipline of sports.
When Tamin Iqbal said that Bangladesh would win the series, Australian captain Smith ignored that. But when Shakib and captain Mushfiqur confidently said that they would wrap up the series for the first time against the visiting side, the Aussies captain reacted politely and said: How will it be possible?
We are really happy and believe that Bangladesh cricketers will be able to maintain the flow although anything can happen in sports. We congratulate Bangladesh cricket team.
In 2002, hosts South Korea defeated China in the basketball gold medal match. When a journalist said: Did you expect the win? He said: We never though of winning against China. We just wanted to play our best and we did that.”
It means, determination is a factor that can bring good result. What Bangladesh planted in the last week of August, let it continue in the days to come.
