As you all know Bangladesh Women's T20 Cricket Team will be playing their World Cup match against India on Monday, 24th February.
The organizers have invited us to join in the pre-match community fan zone (called, the "Village Activation"). Quoting from their email –
"The Village Activation at the ICC T20 Women's World Cup is where fans can view the World Cup up close and personal, have a photo opportunity, face painted in their teams colours, play games or sit and enjoy the match. The community fan groups will be an integral part of The Village. Their energy, engagement and passion for the team/country will be pivotal to the fans' experience.
The Village Activation will be live 2 hrs prior to each match and 1 hr into the match (3hrs total). For double headers the activation will be live for 6 hrs in total 2 hrs prior to each match and 1 hr into the match."
So, may I request you all who are going to WACA to watch the match on 24th to assemble near the Gate 2 at 5:00 PM, please?
We would like to gather as many of us before entering the venue, wearing our Bangladesh team jersey or cultural attire, with our flags waving and making some noise with whatever instrument (dhol, khol etc) we can bring to the ground. The idea is to bring in some positive energy for our women's team as well as to have some good fun and enjoy the match together.
Just be there, at 5 PM near WACA Gate-2!
See you all there!
Best wishes,
