Former Bangladesh cricket team coach Gordon Greenidge has informed that the Tigers have the potential to win against the established powerhouses in the World Cup 2019 in England and Wales.
The former West Indies opening batsman said this while promoting the Bangabandhu Cup Golf Open in Dhaka recently.
“Ofcourse I hope Bangladesh does well. It could at this stage be anyone’s game. There are no dominant favourite that I would say are grand favourites to win the tournament. If Bangladesh play well, they could upset a lot of teams,” said Greenidge.

“Bangladesh are like the West Indies and Pakistan. They play grand cricket one day and another day not so good cricket. So hopefully they will be consistent through the whole tournament.
“I would like to see Bangladesh do well. I have always looked out for Bangladesh even when I wasn’t here. As I said, there are no clear-cut team that I think can win the World Cup,” the 67-year old added.
