You should walk over them

You should walk over them

We should but considering how we thought the same thing in the 2007 ODI world cup and lost to them and didnt even get past the group stages, its best not to become complacent.

India 243 & 413/8d
Bangladesh 242 & 67/2 (18.0 ov)

Bangladesh require another 348 runs with 8 wickets remaining

Bangladesh have a day to either survive or get 348 runs and India have a day to get 8 more wickets.

India won by 113 runs.

Happened in the 2007 world cup!! :(
That was actually good for us tbh. It led to major changes in how the BCCI worked. Since then, we have been good :D (well better).

Anyway lets see how England play against them dear ;)

I wouldn't be in the least bit shocked if we were beaten. Would be our luck.

Unfortunately, Dravid was on 111 before retired hurt as he was hit in the jaws and is currently in hospital.


Rahul Dravid has been admitted to hospital with a suspected fractured jaw after being struck on the side of his face by a bouncer from Shahadat Hossain on the second day. Dravid has been kept in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Square Hospital in Dhaka under observation as a precautionary measure.

"He is comparatively better than before," Fazlul Haq, the attending doctor in the hospital, told Cricinfo. "He will be here for a night and he is likely to be discharged tomorrow."
