India won the toss and have elected to bat first.

Bangladesh made a strong start by sending Dhawan and Kohli back to the pavilion at 79 in 18 overs. However Rohit Sharma played sensibly and rebuilt the inning first with Rahane and then Raina to frustrate and disappoint Bangladesh. Rohit scored maiden world cup century and was eventually out for 137. India managed to cross the physiological score of 300. Bangladesh batsmen could not handle the pressure and kept losing wickets at regular interval eventually folding out at 193 in 45 overs.

Preview

Bangladesh is the lowest ranked amongst the eight teams that made to the world cup quarter final stage. India is in much better position to win this game because of their current form in the world cup. But Bangladesh is on a roll and recently eliminated England from the cup. Their confidence is high. Mashrafe Mortaza missed Bangladesh's last group game against New Zealand, but will be back to lead the side.

MS Dhoni: "It just gets harder and harder. What makes it easy it to make good plans, and then try to execute them well. Looking to improve and there is still scope for that."
