Prime Minister Narendra Modi wished good luck to both the Indian and Bangladesh cricket teams for their T20 World Cup 2024 Super Eights match. The game will be held at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua. India is currently second in Group 1, while Bangladesh is at the bottom.

Addressing a press meeting with Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in Delhi, PM Modi said, “Our shared culture and vibrant people-to-people exchanges are the foundation of our relations. We have taken the decision to raise scholarships, training and capacity building. For the people coming from Bangladesh to India, India will be providing them with E-Visa services. For the people in north-west Bangladesh, we have decided to open a new Assistant High Commission in Rangpur. For the match between India and Bangladesh happening tonight, I wish both teams luck.”

Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina is on a two-day State visit to India from June 21 to 22. PM Modi and PM Hasina also held a bilateral meeting earlier in the day.
