The Mridha Foundation has always supported the Bangladeshi American community, schools, universities, cultural programs, and the international students from Bangladesh. On Wednesday, May 15th, there was a captain meeting regarding this year’s cup held at the luxurious restaurant in Farmington. The meeting was led by the Executive Team, including: Saif Siddique, Mir Rossi, Kawshik Ahmed, Hasan Khan and the captains of all eight teams. The vision has always been to provide the Bangladeshi American community with an opportunity to come through the game of cricket. The MB Advisor Faisal Syed and Farid Chowdhury, along with the Michigan Avengers captains Golam Moinuddin and Abir Hasan, the Michigan Cobras captains Amin Sharfuzzaman and Shaon Chowdhury, the Bengal Spartans captain Kazi Tariqul Islam, the Oakland Golds captains Rahat Khan and Dr. Md.

Every game will be like a huge family gathering, and what is cricket without a gallery of spectators? It is the friendships that develop through the Michigan Bengals Cricket Cup tournaments that really stand out. Whether you’re wanting to play in the tournament, attend as a casual fan or simply just want to meet fellow Bangladeshis, we encourage you to come enjoy and support your community and this initiative. ”We are glad to be part of this initiative. This kind of tournament helps our community to unite and build great relationships among the seniors to the future generations of the Bangladeshi Americans in Michigan.” - Dr. Debasish Mridha, founder of The Mridha Foundation. |
