India face Bangladesh in the ICC ODI Cricket World Cup today and hope to build on their superb win over Pakistan.
Pakistan complained about fan behaviour in Ahmedabad, but Rohit Sharma’s Men in Blue are looking every bit the favourites in this 50-over tournament.
While India are will be expected to win today, bowling coach Paras Mhambrey is aware of the threat the Tigers pose: “When you enter a World Cup, every team will pose you a challenge.
“From our perspective, maybe any team I don’t think we’ll take anyone (lightly). Bangladesh or maybe Netherlands, I think we want to treat that game equally important. Every game for us is important, every opponent for us is important. We are not even looking at that side. What we want to focus on is what we are going to achieve in this game. We have our plans, if we execute our stuff, we will win. And that’s the only thing that we are talking about.” Here’s everything you need to know about watching today's match:
