Bangladeshis are nice people. And culture wise, it is very close to West Bengal. A person who speaks Bangla as mother tongue can pick up Sanskrit or Hindi with ease.

That apart, Bangladesh has a very good balanced team. The ease and ruthlessness with which Shakib and Das dismantled Windies it is clear BDesh has a good shot at semis. After that, it is all how one plays on the day.
Normal Bangladeshis and Indian get along well professionally and socially. Especially if they are from Kolkata as the language and Illish acts as a binding force. We had a Kolkata mate who would socialise with us Bangladeshis more than his Indian friends.

I am quite impressed how Indian media and fans have started appreciating us. There are many in Bangladesh who support Indian team as well.
