March 17, 2007

Bangladesh caused a shock by beating India by 5 wickets (with 9 balls remaining) in Group B at the World Cup at the Queen's Park Oval, Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago. Many Indian fans have labelled the team's performance 'shambolic' and one of the darkest days in Indian cricket history, while some have responded by burning effigies of team coach, former Australian test captain Greg Chappell.

Toss: India won, and chose to bat first.
