The rivalry between India and Bangladesh is one of the most intense in all of cricket. The two teams have met 103 times in One Day Internationals (ODIs), with India holding a 54-44 advantage. The matches are always fiercely contested, and the atmosphere is electric.
I was lucky enough to be at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata for the 2019 World Cup match between India and Bangladesh. The stadium was packed to the rafters, and the crowd was in full voice. The match was a thriller, with India eventually winning by 28 runs. But the result was secondary to the incredible atmosphere.
The crowd was a sea of blue and green, the colors of the two teams. The fans were singing, dancing, and waving flags. The noise was deafening. I had never experienced anything like it.
The match was a microcosm of the rivalry between India and Bangladesh. It was fierce, passionate, and ultimately, it was India who came out on top. But Bangladesh gave India a run for their money, and they showed that they are a team to be reckoned with.
Here are some of the most memorable moments from the 2019 World Cup match between India and Bangladesh:
  • Rohit Sharma's century: Sharma scored a brilliant 104 runs off 92 balls to set the platform for India's victory.
  • Shakib Al Hasan's all-round performance: Hasan took 5 wickets for 66 runs and scored 51 runs off 61 balls.
  • The catch of the tournament: Liton Das took a stunning catch to dismiss Virat Kohli.
  • The crowd's passion: The crowd was incredible throughout the match, creating an electric atmosphere.
The rivalry between India and Bangladesh is one that is sure to continue for many years to come. It is a rivalry that is full of passion, intensity, and drama. I can't wait to see what the next chapter holds.
