Dubai or Dhaka?

It was hard to tell the game was being played in Dubai. The whole of the gallery seemed occupied by only Bangladeshi supporters, the famous red and green giving it a so familiar look on Saturday.

Bangladeshis working in the United Arab Emirates filled up the gallery on their weekend while many flew from different parts of the world to support their favourite Tigers.

Much to their delight, Bangladesh displayed one of their best ODI performances to record a 137-run win and the roaring fans made it sound like the Sher-E-Bangla National Stadium.
