The sporting heroes of Bangladesh’s entire cricket team narrowly escaped the mass shooting in New Zealand, arriving to the sound of gunfire just moments after a gunman walked into a Christchurch mosque with an automatic rifle.

At least 49 people died in what has been described as a terrorist incident targeting two mosques.
