Bangladesh unveiled their official jersey for the ODI World Cup
In a much-anticipated move, Bangladesh have unveiled their official jersey for the upcoming 2023 ODI World Cup, adding to the excitement of fans worldwide. Skipper Shakib Al Hasan, along with his fellow teammates, recently revealed the brand new kit that will represent the nation on the cricketing world stage.
The jersey showcases vibrant shades of green, with eye-catching accents of red on the front. It’s a design that embodies the spirit of the Bangladeshi cricket team and reflects their determination to make a mark in the tournament.
However, the road to the World Cup has not been smooth for Bangladesh. They recently faced a 2-0 loss in the ODI series against New Zealand on their home turf, leaving fans disappointed. Despite their previous struggles, Bangladesh is gearing up for the World Cup, with two warm-up fixtures scheduled against Sri Lanka and England. Their World Cup campaign officially kicks off on October 7th when they face Afghanistan at Dharamsala.
Meanwhile, in a surprising turn of events, Tamim Iqbal, one of Bangladesh’s most prominent cricketers, was left out of the 15-member squad for the World Cup. This decision came shortly after New Zealand clinched a series victory by winning the third ODI in Dhaka.
Bangladesh’s recent performances in white-ball cricket have raised concerns among fans and critics alike. Failing to make an impression in the Asia Cup, where they were defeated by Pakistan and Sri Lanka, added to their woes. However, they did manage to secure a solitary win against India in the same tournament.
With the World Cup just around the corner, Bangladesh supporters are hopeful that their team will rise to the occasion and put on a better performance. The cricketing world eagerly awaits the kickoff of the 2023 OID World Cup, commencing on October 5 with a match between the finalists of the last edition, England and New Zealand.
