Here is the best part. All three Bangladesh representatives are family! Soma and Mahi are cousins to Tushi, making this a brilliant sister act representing the nation on the grand stage.

To top it all off, Coach Mohammad Ali (C), who happens to be Soma’s husband, was spotted courtside dropping crucial tactical tips to Mahi.
