It was so overcast at the time of the toss, that if they had elected to bat first, then even the miserable Indian bowling could have got them out for pretty much less than what they achieved batting second. Moreover, even if India had won the toss, they would have fielded first, coz to up the runrate, posting a huge score is not the only way. U cud have bundled out Bermuda for around 80 and got it in 8 overs. that wud have increased India NRR much higher than the present one Having said this, Indian bowling attack is pathetic.

With so much confidence in match-fixing abilities of whoever-it-is-that-do-that-for-whatever-there-is-to-gain, I am betting…er, guessing…that India will make it to the next round. Why did Bermuda, knowing full well India needs a huge total, elect to field after winning the toss against India? Was it because Bermuda has a long history of successfully chasing targets set by opponents? I think not.
