DHAKA (AFP): Desperate times call for desperate measures and colourful cricket superfan Shoyab Ali has had to deploy a full arsenal as he follows his beloved Bangladesh around the globe. Bangladesh defeated India by five wickets in Dhaka even though Sachin Tendulkar ended his long wait for his 100th international century in the Asia Cup game in 2012. "I decided I will be like him and watch every game Bangladesh plays," Ali said. "After spending a night in the airport, the Bangladesh officials brought my documents and took me to Harare," Shoyab said. I hope I can bring similar luck for them at the World Cup," he said.
