It was a matter of great disgrace when the Tigers were
bundled out for just 58 at Mirpur against West Indies
during the World Cup. The passionate fans of Bangladesh
cricket were shell-shocked and annoyed. That dismal show by the Bangladesh
cricket team was an absolute national disaster.
In the next encounter against England ,
the Tigers did notch up a nail-biting win, but that shoddy performance against West
Indies continued to haunt each and every Bangladeshi cricket fans
and the team as well. The Tigers and its ardent followers wanted to humiliate
the Caribbean in the same manner.
And the Tigers did take the revenge.
The Bangladeshi bowlers who looked dull in the first two
one-day internationals, suddenly rediscovered their mojo and in the twinkle of
an eye, the inform West Indian batting was blown away.
At 33 for 1, the West Indies looked
composed enough. But suddenly, the golden boy of Bangladesh
cricket, Shakib Al Hasan transformed into a monster and devoured the West
Indian batsmen. He went on to cut through the lower order, finishing with
figures of 4 for 16 as he ended the innings in the 22nd over.
The joy among the fans is enormous. They are happy as their
team has been able to humiliate the Caribbean in the
same manner like World Cup.
Though its sad to lose the ODI series, but this victory is
suppose to boost the Tigers’ confidence. But at the moment, the nation is happy
as because the revenge has been taken.
Thank You
