Sri Lanka will be looking for the elusive test match and series win when they tour India for a Three Test, five ODI and Two T20 match series from November to December 2009. The team arrive in India on November 8th for the 55-day tour.
The Bangladeshis, the 10th addition to the test-playing nations,
Beat Pakistan and Scotland in the 1999 World Cup but then crashed
to a 60-run defeat against Canada in the very next World Cup.
Asked the whether it was the greatest cricketing embarrassment
ever experienced by Bangladesh, captain Khaled Mashud replyed
"Cricket is a funny game and anything can happen"
In 1999, the Asian side produced one of the biggest upsets in
World Cup history with their 62-run victory over Pakistan but
questions were raised over the commitment of Pakistan's effort,
the side having already qualified for the next phase.
In Picture: Bangladesh players during the course of the
biggest ODI upset ever. They went on to beat Pakistan in this
inconsequential World Cup Match.
India have maintained a clean record against Bangladesh in 11
ODI matches winning all of them. 10 of the wins have come when
India batted second and one when India batted first.
