It was the first day at the cricket world cup for Indians. All the Indian fans where expecting a comprehensive victory over the Bangladeshis. But what happened was not at all expected. The minnows Bangladesh defeated the Men in Blue comprehensively.
The five wicket win over India will make Bangladesh one of the strong contender for the super-8 stage of the world cup.
The defeat was not alone due to the lack of performance from India. But Bangladesh performance was to the point. They came and conquered. They where not doing any experiments in the field. The bowling was perfect. The fielding was extra-ordinary. Their batting was also good. The victory was a deserved one for the Bangladeshis.
The Ganguly - Dravid, Ganguly-Yuvraj singh pair and Zaheer - Munaf pair where the only run-getters. Indians failed miserably to be reduced to 191 all out.
No matter what the protests are happening, the Bangladeshis deserve the victory over India for their disciplined performance. The Indian defeat is simply inexcusible.
