Dhaka, Bangladesh (BBN)-A group of youths carrying a large red and green national flag paraded through Dhaka streets to wish good luck to Bangladesh cricket team ahead of their quarterfinal match against India at Melbourne on Thursday.
The cricket fans under the banner of ‘Bangladesh Cricket Fans Unity’ brought out a rally from Dhaka University’s Raju Sculpture Wednesday afternoon and dispersed at the TSC after marching to the Central Shaheed Minar.
The fans were moving innumerable small replica of flags in a high hope that tomorrow this flag will also be wielded with pride on Melbourne Cricket Ground in Australia where Bangladesh is expected to face India at 9:30am (BST).
They also sang the national anthem to wish the Tigers’ team led by Mashrafe Bin Mortaza.
