Holding our breath!

Right now, the people of the country are amidst the World Cup Cricket frenzy. People look to sports for excitement and it is a good distraction from the negative incidents that continue to take place in the country. 

But even in cricket, hope has begun to dwindle. The whole country was rooting for Afghanistan to win against Pakistan because it would have meant higher chances for Bangladesh to reach the semi-finals, but unfortunately, Afghanistan lost by a narrow margin to Pakistan, now making our possibility of going through to the semis even slimmer.

We can now only hope that in the next two matches against India and Pakistan, our team will perform outstandingly. Win or lose, we hope their performance on the field makes us all proud. Our best wishes are with them.
