Why is cricket the famous sport in Bangladesh?

Answer 1

Bangladesh inherited most of its cricket fandom from its past as part of India.Cricket had been a part of India for centuries, picked up while a member of the British Empire, and when Bangladesh and Pakistan were separated from India and eventually became independent nations, both countries retained interest in the sport from their time as part of India. Bangladesh in particular has shown enthusiasm for the sport spurred on by surprising success in international competition and the rise of national stars such as Tamim Iqbal who have shown their ability to stand up against even highly-skilled opposition.
