Guys, informed some of my friends in Dhaka (and they'll probably drop off some flowers at the team hotel)....

but they are asking is it Sheraton or Sonargaon?? Is it Sonargaon for certain?? (they just dont want to drop it off at the wrong hotel). Thanks

Moderators, If you need donations to send flowers, please contact me with phone # in my email.

ALso, I have a proposal, to provide a lot of playcards for the fans who will be in the next match with words like -
1) APOLOGY to WI team OR WE LOVE WI and GAYLE. I wish we keep it on every galary, may be 20 placards
2) WE VOW TO ACCEPT WORST DEFEAT GRACEFULLY and BEST WIN SPORTINGLY
3) BUNCHES OF FLOWER TO ENG/NETHERLAND/SA team right before the match

i was thinking the same

Night_wolf · #66 March 4, 2011, 03:27 PM

this is from cricinfo...so the word is spreading..good

http://www.espncricinfo.com/icc_cric...ry/504317.html

ialbd · #67 March 4, 2011, 05:28 PM

^^^ the word is indeed spreading.... but its getting very confusing now...

this facebook event page has the location as Sheraton, but I heard Sonargaon all these time. I told couple of my friends about it and asked them to double check (at the reception) before dropping off the flowers....

Haru-party · #68 March 4, 2011, 05:48 PM

the number has gone upto 1025 attending in that page...atleast hoping 3000-4000 as not everyone uses fb or didnt get a chance to login

**Zunaid** · #69 March 4, 2011, 07:21 PM

Can anyone there take pictures?

BappyHayat · #71 March 4, 2011, 07:57 PM

Great initiative Zunaid Bhai

mij · #72 March 4, 2011, 08:15 PM

This is great idea...

**Zunaid** · #73 March 4, 2011, 08:35 PM

I have been tweeting about this and this has gotten picked up in the twitterverse and being passed around.

**Zunaid** · #74 March 4, 2011, 09:37 PM

Perhaps some good will come out of our initiative

ialbd · #75 March 4, 2011, 10:11 PM

From the facebook event page it seems it was very successful. Quoting couple of posts from there:

"Could not get there on time... uttara theke shahbag jete 2:30 hrs laglo.. when I reached there all the people were going back... but I heard that the event was successful...West Indies team accepted our flowers and apologies... feeling much better

"

"Captain of the WI team came out and accepted our letter and flowers .Security reason er karon e unake gate e aste denni but he waved to us and send someone with his mobile to capture photos of us.
May be this is not enough but we did our best at least.so our initiative was Successful .....
now its time to say sorry to OUR TEAM..
To our captain .
we are with you Bangladesh cricket team..
photos are coming up..."
