Cricket is the most popular sport in the sub-continent, and countries like India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh are Test-playing nations. The so-called minnows, Bangladesh, are also taking rapid strides in cricket, and their fans have always been strongly behind their cricket team.

Bangladesh cricket fans are quite emotional and do not hide their emotions. If their team is winning, they go all out and indulge in wild celebrations, but then when Bangladesh lose, they are heart-broken, and one has seen their fans in the stands in tears as well.

Bangladesh have been doing well in world cricket, but they will need to strive for consistency and win some major competition in order to be bracketed as a top cricket nation.

The national team of Bangladesh nicknamed 'The Tigers' are also doing well in the ongoing Champions Trophy. They will face India in the semi-finals of the competition on Thursday, so one should brace for some different mood from cricket fans in Birmingham during the encounter.
