The two neighbouring countries played a few finals in the last few years. In all the occasions, India came up victorious, which has pushed the rivalry further.
“We have a super fan base all over the world. We get immense support wherever we play except Bangladesh. We are not used to getting more opponent supporters in the field than us. It’s unbelievable that we don’t get much support in Bangladesh,” Rohit told during the Facebook Live with Tamim.
However, the Indian superstar hailed the cricket-crazy Bangladesh fans for their incredible support and love for their national team.
“I understand how much they enjoy your game, I understand how passionate they are about cricket. Hat’s off to them,” Rohit told Tamim.
