Twitter lashes out at Bangladesh players for their exploits in Colombo

Bangladesh beat Sri Lanka by 2 wickets in the last match of the league stage in the Nidahas Trophy 2018 and is now all set to lock horns with India on Sunday in the finals.

In the virtual semi-final that was played in Colombo on Friday, Sri Lanka set a target of 160 runs, which Bangladesh successfully managed to chase.

Mahmudullah smashed a superb 6 on the penultimate ball of the match for reaching the target; however, there was too much drama towards the end of the game.

It started when Shakib Al Hasan asked the two batsmen to leave batting and come out of the field while protesting against the no-ball call made by the umpire.

Even during drinks, substitute fielder Nurul Hasan had a war of words with Sri Lankan skipper Thisara Perera. And when the matter became worse, match officials had to intervene.

Not only this, even Bangladesh’s dressing room was damaged after the ‘Naagin dance’ celebrations. Glasses were shattered too, and it is alleged that a senior Bangladeshi player is involved in this act.

Meanwhile, fans on Twitter seems to be very angry and is slamming Bangladesh for their exploits in Colombo.

Here are some of the tweets:
