Dedicate Historic Test Win Over Pakistan To Those Who Lost Their Lives In Bangladesh Protest, Says Shanto
Najmul Hossain Shanto: Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto said the historic Test win over Pakistan at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium was dedicated to those people who lost their lives in the student-led protests in the country, which led to the toppling of Sheikh Hasina-led government.
"The win is dedicated to those who lost their lives during the anti-discrimination protest from among the students and public. Lots of prayers from the team for them. Their families have gone through a very tough time and hope through this victory a little smile is brought to their faces," said Shanto to reporters after the match ended in a ten-wicket win for Bangladesh.
The student-led protests led to Bangladesh travelling to Pakistan earlier than expected as their practice was hampered in Dhaka due to nationwide turmoil and had extensive sessions before the series began. Moreover, six capped players also played the first four-day matches against Pakistan Shaheens.
