Young Tigers return home with trophy on shoulder
Captain Azizul Hakim and Team
They retained their title with an impressive 59-run victory over India in the final at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday.
The young Tigers had claimed their first trophy in the tournament last year, defeating hosts UAE by a massive 195 runs in the final at the same venue.
Before heading to the Asia Cup, the BCB organized several months of training camps, during which the final squad was selected through various processes.
The team management worked tirelessly during these months-long camps to prepare the young cricketers, while the players themselves put in their best efforts.
The Bangladesh captain Azizul Hakim Tamim believes that winning the Asia Cup is the result of everyone’s hard work.
“A journey has started. There was a lot of effort behind this. Allah has brought us here, and overall, it feels great. The hard work we put in—from Under-15, 17, and 19—Allah has perhaps rewarded us for that” The captain said.
