Let’s have a look at the photo. The Bangladesh delegation arrives at the opening ceremony for the 2006 Commonwealth Games at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), 15 March 2006. Look at the left side in front row- one of the members of Bangladesh team is in wheelchair!!! Is she a player or an official? It’s quite normal that someone may become sick after leaving the country. But some Bangladeshi athletes concealed their sickness and/or pregnancy in the past just to be on the overseas touring team. I hope this is not one of such.

Great news to hear that Bangladesh won a silver medal for the Men's 10m Air Rifle Pairs through Mohd Asif Hossain Khan and Anjan Singha.

In the last Commonwealth Games in Manchester, Mohd Asif Hossain Khan won a gold medal and was only 15 years old.

Does anyone know of any other potential Bangladeshi medal winners that we should look out for?
