PRESIDENT-CRICKET-GREETINGS
President congratulates cricketers for whitewashing West Indies
DHAKA, Dec 2, 2018 (BSS) – President M Abdul Hamid today extended his
heartiest congratulation to the national cricket team for whitewashing the
visiting West Indies in the two-Test series at Mirpur Sher-e-Bangla National
Stadium here.
In a congratulatory message, the President greeted all the players,
coaches and officials of the national cricket team as well as Bangladesh
Cricket Board (BCB) officials concerned for winning the Test series against
West Indies.
“We are proud of seeing the team spirit and performance of our cricket
team,” he said
Abdul Hamid hoped that the winning spree of the Bangladesh cricket team
would continue in the days to come.
The spirited Tigers recorded their biggest-margin victory in Test
cricket as they routed the Caribbeans by an innings and 184 runs in the
second and final Test of the series to clinch the series 2-0.
In the first Test, Bangladesh beat West Indies by 64 at Zahur Ahmed
Chowdhury Stadium on November 24.
