if true Now they can make some extra cash by selling it to their Bangladeshi "brothers". Pakistanis are quite entrepreneurial

Yes, but of course if Pakistanis do not sell, they will lose their money
I am buying mine from a guy who is losing a bit, so I did not insist on a further discount

Great stuff you got tickets! It would be great if you can share photos from the game or experiences!
Good thing you didnt ask for a discount. Amni bechra der obostha kahil!

++++.

….In the sri lanka match, 90%+ were BD supporters
In the India match, I wasn't there buy my friends said ~60% were Bangladeshis
I am expecting a 50-50 mix tomorrow simply because Pakistanis have a lot of the tickets
In Abu Dhabi, which is a slightly smaller capacity stadium, we were 90%+ in the Afghanistan game, and maybe 80-85% yesterday against Pakistan

Bhai Doa koren, I do not have the tickets "in hand" yet, but we have an agreement of honor, and he called me to ensure I will pick them up.

InshahAllah I hope you get tickets and go bro!
But when a Pakistani is involved, I would also be worried as they dont worry about honour .

Talking of the national anthem, I am really happy that the Japanese Philharmonic version is finally being played,
the choral Rabindro sangeet style version is good at school functions and conventions, but not before a do or die cricket match

In a cricinfo article they were talking about the passion of Bangladeshi fans. They picked up on a Bangladesh reporter who says it always brings tears to his eyes whenever the national anthem is played before a game.
