I have been following BD cricket for a long time and I have never seen us playing with so much determination and heart.

+1.
Before the start of this tournament, most of us here in the BC forum were expressing that only one win is more likely and we did not expect any more than that.
Fact is, we kicked India butt out of the cup final and beat Lanka fare and square.
I am sure, everyone played their heart out, with so much pressure in a tight game at this magnitude, some of the most experienced senior players buckled, let alone the young ones.
This group of players had never been under such pressure prior to this match.
I can now dream of us beating quality opponent on a regular basis. I can now walk into any conversation among my Indian, Pakistani or any other great 8s co-workers and not be taken lightly when it comes to cricket.
