Bangladesh flags were waved relentlessly at the Mirpur Stadium by boisterous fans celebrating as their team outplayed the opposition.
Teen prodigy and left arm pacer Mustafizur Rahman confounded the Indian batsmen with his lethal offcutters. The 19-year-old returned home with 13 wickets in 3 matches and in the process became only the second ODI bowler after Zimbabwe's Brian Vitori to claim five-for in his first two matches.
The Indians, however, avoided an unprecedented series whitewash by earning a consolatory 77-run victory in the final match.
But what Bangladesh achieved on the field was, today, somewhat negated by their media’s lack of sportsman spirit. In an attempt to further shame and humiliate Team India, a renowned Bangladeshi newspaper came out with this photograph on June 29th, 2015.
