In the opening encounter of WC team INDIA defeated B'desh by 87 runs.India took the revenge of last world cup loss. India defeated Bangladesh at all departments. India piled a huge total of 370 for 4 in stipulated 50 overs. The 'Nawab of Najafgarh' scored a mammoth 175 runs. Earlier a confusion between SRT and Viru costs Sachin's wicket,but Sehwag was unstoppable.Mainly after getting his ton he was devastating.Kohli played a brilliant knock.It was also his world cup debut.This well made ton means Raina has to wait for his turn.Sakib, the Bangla skipper opted to field first at the Mirpur pitch due to its previous record,but the decision backfires.The left arm spin,which is the main weapon of B'desh attack seemed totally effectless.VIRU and KOHLI thrashed the Bangla seamers as well as slow bowlers.Out field was slow and the pitch was little bit of spongy where the ball was not coming to bat.But Shewag improvised his shots with cool head and played an excellent innings.INDIA played 3 seamers but Sree was completely out of colour.Although bowling under lights was not easy there,but he was bowling too short.Munaf bowled on the stump line and prized with 4 wickets.Zaheer and Bhaji used there experience.As their was almost no assistance to seamers B 'desh scored a good total. Tamim,Kayes and Sakib played well.It will be a warning to other teams which will play against B'desh about their home advantage.Stroke players will have to improvise here.It will be interesting to see stroke players like KP,AB,Gayle batting aganist Bangladesh.
