Potchefstroom: Bangladesh skipper Akbar Ali said it's a dream come true for him and his team and that it is just the beginning for them after they stunned defending champions India by three wickets in a tense U-19 World Cup final here on Sunday. It was Bangladesh's maiden World Cup win across all levels.
"It's like a dream coming true. It's all about the hard work that we put in the last 2 years. I can't thank the coaching staff enough. It's purely hard work," Akbar said. He also added that what happened after the match was unfortunate as both teams came to blows. There was constant sledging on the pitch during the game and that boiled over.
