Cricket is the most popular in Bangladesh, not accepted by Infantino

Cricket is the most popular in Bangladesh, not accepted by Infantino.

Asked about FIFA President Gianni Infantino at a press conference, a journalist said - 'Cricket is a popular game in Bangladesh ...'

Before the question was over, Infantino's comment, 'Cricket is the most popular game in Bangladesh, I don't think.' His clear words, 'There are 20 countries in the world playing football. Cricket doesn't play too much country. The chances of doing good in a game that is played by 4-5 countries will increase. Yes, I understand that Bangladesh has a lot of success in cricket. But cricket plays some countries all over the world.

Cricket is a very difficult game for Infantino. He thinks that the game is not understood by most people. The president of FIFA thinks football plays with his heart, 'What is the number of countries that play cricket, 3-5! But can you say that everyone understands the game of cricket? Everyone understands football, it goes easy. You're playing the game with the ball, cheering. Football goes through the heart.

Infantino does not think Bangladesh is lagging behind in football, “playing 20 countries in football but a world champion is a country - France. That doesn't mean the rest of the country plays poorly.

Bangladesh could have won against Kolkata on Tuesday against India. The FIFA president got an idea about the madness of the people of Bangladesh with this match despite the draw at the end of the match, but after the match against India, I am sure that Bangladesh will go a lot higher. If this continues, I am sure that cricket will not be found in Bangladesh.
