Led by Virender Sehwag’s valiant 175, Indian batsmen made mincemeat of Bangladesh’ bowlers in the opening match of the 2011 ICC World Cup at Mirpur in Bangladesh.
At the end of the 50th over, India had notched up a respectable 370-4.
Sehwag was splendidly supported by youngster Virat Kohli, who scored a century in his first World Cup appearance.
Sehwag’s 175 came off 140 balls while Kohli’s 100 took just 83 balls.

Bangladesh has a daunting task ahead of it.
One might even take the risk and say that Bangladesh needs a miracle to win this match.
What say you schmucks. Does Bangladesh stand a chance?
