PM greets Tigers for winning 2nd T20 against New Zealand

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina Friday extended her heartiest congratulations to the national cricket team for winning second consecutive T20 match against the visiting New Zealand by four runs taking 2-0 lead in the five-match series.

Bangladesh earlier on September 1 won the maiden T20 match against New Zealand by seven wickets.

In a felicitation message, the cricket-lover prime minister greeted all the players, coach and officials of the national cricket team as well as Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) officials for beating New Zealand.

Sheikh Hasina expressed the hope that the winning spree of the Bangladesh cricket team would continue in future.

Bangladesh is hosting New Zealand for a five-match T20 International series at the Sher-e Bangla National Cricket Stadium (SBNCS) here.

The remaining three matches will be held on September 5, 8 and 10.
