After losing to Bangladesh, Team India has now only one option- win the rest of the two group matches against Bermuda and Sri Lanka. India has just finished their innings against Bermuda and they have scored 413 Runs for 5 wickets in their allotted 50 overs.

This is what happens when all the batsmen of Indian top order shines at the same time. Virender Sehwag, Sachin Tendulkar, Saurav Ganguly and Yuvraj Singh competed against each other to play well and score more runs. In the end, they made:

Virender Sehwag-114

Sourav Ganguly-89

Yuvraj Singh -83

Sachin Tendulkar- 57

A few records were tumbled in the end. India broke the score of highest runs in World Cup Cricket. India also scored their highest in ODI. Virender Sehwag and Sourav Ganguly built a massive partnership in the morning. Sehwag was completely aggressive and he scored very quickly. Ganguly continued his good performance. After Sehwag and Ganguly departed, Yuvraj and Tendulkar continued the onslaught and even increased the pace of scoring runs.

Yuvraj scored his 83 runs of just 46 balls. Sehwag was in a very destructive mood today. He was eager to silence the critics who called for keeping him out of the Indian team during World Cup Cricket 2007. If Sehwag can continue his form then it will be great for Team India in the coming days. Yuvraj was perhaps the best batsman of the Indian innings.

I feel sympathy for Bermudan bowlers. None of the Bermudan bowlers could make any impact. All the 5 Indian batsmen got out when they tried to play big shots.

Now, the main task of Indian bowlers is to restrict Bermuda within 150 runs. If they can do it then India will have good net run rate after this match.
