I attended the Asia Cup final cricket tournament that was held at Dhaka Stadium in the year 2002 or 2003. We went to Dhaka to watch the game and stayed at a hotel during this time. I had 3-4 friends and a cousin with me from the very beginning. We had had our ticket almost 3 months before the game started. On the day we left the hotel early morning and took a taxi to reach near the stadium. We found a huge crowd there; in fact, the crowd was much more than we anticipated and expected. I found one of my friends wearing the jersey of a team and others whistles. The crowd and their patience in the line gave the impression how much popular this game over here.
我参加了2002年或2003年在达卡体育场举行的亚洲杯板球决赛。我们去了达卡看比赛,在此期间我们住在一家旅馆里。我从一开始就有3-4个朋友和一个表哥。比赛开始前3个月我们就拿到了门票。那天我们一大早就离开了旅馆,乘出租车去了体育场附近。我们发现那里有一大群人;事实上,人群比我们预期的要多得多。我发现我的一个朋友穿着队服,其他人吹着口哨。排队的人群和他们的耐心给人的印象是这场比赛在这里有多受欢迎。
I had a flag with me of the team I supported. We had to stay in the line for about 45 minutes before we finally entered the stadium. I simply became overwhelmed with the sheer number of spectators and their festivity and support for the game.
我带着我支持的球队的国旗。在我们最终进入体育场之前,我们不得不排了大约45分钟的队。观众的数量之多、他们的节日气氛以及对比赛的支持让我不知所措。
The game started at 10.00 am and the people were enjoying it very much. The game was really enjoyable and I found supporters for both of the team. The crowd, the music, the competition, the excitement of the game, and the liveliness and spontaneous actions of the spectators were noteworthy. After the first team ended their innings, we went outside and were looking for a hotel to eat. But people were everywhere and there was no seat in the hotel. Finally, we got an empty hotel after walking almost 20 minutes and sat there to have our lunch. We returned to the stadium in 35 minutes and the second innings started. Several TV channels were broadcasting the live game and the number of people watching this very game in the world would not be less than 70 million.
比赛在上午10点开始,人们非常喜欢它。这场比赛非常有趣,我为两队找到了支持者。观众、音乐、比赛、比赛的*、观众的活泼和自发的行为都值得注意。在一队结束了他们的一局之后,我们出去找了一家旅馆吃饭。但是到处都是人,旅馆里也没有座位。最后,我们走了将近20分钟,到了一家空旅馆,坐在那里吃午饭。我们在35分钟后回到球场,第二局开始了。几家电视频道都在直播这场比赛,全世界观看这场比赛的人数将不少于7000万。
The first team scored 280 and that was a good fighting score at that time. The second team started hammering the bowls from the very beginning. It seemed to me that they would not need more than 30 overs to win the game. But they started losing wickets and in 20 overs they lost 3 wickets. The spirit and excitement of the spectators looked like a waving sea. The team I was supporting started doing really good. In the evening the game started turning in favor of the first team and became very close. Cricket is a game of uncertainty and this game became even more competitive and uncertain. Both teams had the chance to win and the game was changing in every 10 minutes. The last 30 minutes were breathless and extremely exciting and finally the team I was supporting won the match.
一队得了280分,那是一个很好的战斗得分。第二队从一开始就开始敲碗。在我看来,他们不需要超过30场就能赢得比赛。但是他们开始失去蟋蟀在20场比赛中他们失去了3个。观众们的精神和兴奋就像波涛汹涌的大海。我支持的团队开始做得很好。到了晚上,比赛开始变得对一线队有利,双方势均力敌。板球是一项充满不确定性的运动,这项运动变得更加具有竞争性和不确定性。两队都有机会获胜,比赛每10分钟就会发生变化。最后30分钟让人喘不过气来,激动人心,最后我支持的球队赢得了比赛。
This event takes place once in every two years and the schedule and venue are selected and maintained by the ICC. This was my first experience to visit Dhaka as well as watching such an exciting match. I have watched few other cricket matches in the stadium, but none of them was as exciting as this one was. The crowd, the enthusia* of the people and the superb weather made it an interesting one.
该活动每两年举行一次,时间和地点由国际商会选择和维护。这是我第一次访问达卡,也是第一次观看如此精彩的比赛。我在体育场很少看其他的板球比赛,但没有一场比赛像这次那样令人兴奋。人群,人们的热情和极好的天气使它成为一个有趣的。
