Hasina questions 'umpiring' during India-Bangladesh match

Dhaka, Mar 21 (IBNS): Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has said she believes that her country would not have lost the World Cup quarter finals clash against India had there been no umpiring errors.

During an event organized by the Bangladeshi expatriates in Australia for the reception of the national cricket team, Prime Minister Hasina called Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) President Nazmul Hassan, media reports said.

When Hassan connected a loudspeaker to the phone, Hasina was quoted as saying to players by bdnews24.com, “We would have won if the umpires did not give wrong decisions."

“In Sha Allah, Bangladesh will win in the future. Bangladesh will become world champions someday," she said.

India defeated Bangladesh to reach the semi-finals of the World Cup.
