No cricketer likes to go out there, do badly and lose, disappointing the fans. What happened against the Windies - not the defeat, but folding up for 58 - was purely an "accident" like Kayes said in the post match interview today. That did not give the right to so called fans to, - run down the Bangladeshi cricketers
- stone their bus
- stone the bus of the visitors
- stone the house of the Bangladeshi captain
- insult the Bangladeshi cricketers and the coaching staff
- write unwarranted and unfounded "smart" comments here
Even tonight I saw so many fans leaving the stadium without staying with the Bangladeshi team when they were up against it. Shame on them ! Those fans - a vary large number - did not have the guts to see it. The same kind of people think they have the right to get violent and insulting against the Tigers and their support staff when they lose !
Come on fans, get real ! Stand by your team at all times ! Nothing gives you the right to stone them ! Even if they are genuinely bad you have no right to do that.
This team is taken seriously by any opposition now and I for one think that the Tigers are now a top notch team. I will not be surprised to see them in the semi finals this time.
Go Tigers !

Aren't we just displaying how emotional fans we are? Take a deep breath. The sun is still shining, birds are still chirping, and Bangladesh has a realistic chance at QF.

The people I have problem with
- Who threw stuff in the field in the WI game
- Who stoned the BD/WI team buses
- Who stoned Sakib's houses
- Who burned effigies in the street
This win is a slap in the face to them. Every other frustrated fan reaction is justifiable (booing, leaving the stadium early, posting knee-jerk reaction in the forum etc.)

I am not from Bangladesh, but have always supported this team and have followed their progress, I have also made my family their fans. i could not watch the match against England, so when BD won, my younger sister called me on my mobile to tell me the great news that my little lads had beaten England, I jumped for joy.
Alos, when they lost so brutally to the WI, I had a hole in my heart for days, I felt so sad for them.
