Can Indian team make it to 2nd round?

17th March, what a day for Ireland and Bangladesh. Bangla front line bowlers did win the match for them, they were brilliant with the ball and in the filed. They deservingly won the match, kudos to them..

Of course we still have a negligible change to enter the 2nd round. With the loss to Bangla all of our players might get awakened, and might be planning to thrash Bermuda on 19th to keep their hopes alive.

Unfortunately Pakistan exited too soon, and people who have bought (in case) tickets for 15th April expecting India vs Pakistan now may enjoy a match of minnows :-).

The only solace with Pakistan's exit is, we can carry over the clean world cup record against Pakistan for 4 more yrs :-).

off the record:
India won their opening match twice in 1983 and 2003, in both cases they reached the finals.

Some interesting stuff(credit should go to the source):
