The pressure is not as big as last time. Even if India lose, we have 5 more games to hit back and qualify for the quarterfinals. So the weight of a loss is not huge. But its always great to start off with a win and keep winning. I dont believe in the superstition of "India do better when they start off poorly".

Never thought a India vs Bangladesh match would develop so much hype and tension 
Its the subcontinent and so Bangladesh get an equal footing because they are also well used to the conditions. Also its the first game of a historic tournament that you are so badly expected to win (anything less than a cup win for India will be a disappointment). Its worrying, the pressure. Hope the boys dont take the pressure to heart. Start off with a bang, and continue with a bang.

Might as well have a little fun and try this v-bookie stuff. How do I place a bet?

Lets hope we get a good game of cricket here. I suspect India will beat the crap out of BD but that won't be good viewing if you are a neutral.

Is skysports showing this match or are they only showing England's matches?
