A
Triumph Against
the Odds
 |
The long awaited
moment finally came. The clock read 12:56pm. The calendar
read Monday, 10th of January, 2005. Finally, Bangladesh
registered their first ever win in test cricket. It was
10th of November, 2000 when Bangladesh, the youngest among
the 10 test playing countries, played their first test
match against the neighbouring India. Four long years
and two months went by before Bangladesh could grab the
long eluding victory on January 10 at MA Aziz Stadium
in Chittagong. The entire country burst into celebration
the cricket crazy Bangladeshis finally got something to
rejoice about. |
