Bermuda could now knock India out of the WC, even without winning.
On a related note, Agarkar has been carted around by the mighty Bermudan
batsmen. Nice time you picked to fail, buddy.

Consider the following scenarios
i) Ind bt SLK; SLK bt Ban; Ban bt Ber (4, 4, 4, 0)
Three way tie. India only have to be ahead of Ban NRR. Ban will have a
-ve NRR in their loss against SLK. India is very safe in this scenario
in terms of NRR
ii) SLK bt Ind; Ber bt Ban; SLK bt Ban (6, 2, 2, 2)
Three way tie again. Again India will only have to be ahead of Ban in
NRR. Since Ban would have lost both matches, their NRR will be very
low
Bottomline, in any of the scenarios India is never in competition with
SLK's NRR, only Bangladesh's

then Bangladesh could well end up with a NRR higher than SL. In that
scenario Ind and Bang would both qualify and SL would be out.
I'm beginning to think that any combination of 2 of the 3 sides going
through is about equally likely. Bangladesh beating India has just
levelled the playing field and made it an equal 3-horse race instead
of a 2-horse one. It'll be nailbiting right until the end of the
Bermuda-Bang game, assuming SL beat Bang and Ind beat SL which are the
most probable results.
I think the safest team at the moment is, ironically, India. Just a
simple win against SL, no matter how narrow, will IMO guarantee them a
spot. I think Bangladesh, should they lose to SL, will end up
regretting the way they dawdled at the end in the India match. They
could have won it about 3-4 overs earlier easily but chose not to.
After all is done and dusted, my prediction is for Ind and SL to go
through with Ind taking the points, just like most people expected/
hoped at the beginning. Bangladesh, despite a famous and convincing
victory over India, a reasonable drubbing of Bermuda and an
agonizingly close loss to SL, will end up wondering how on earth they
missed out.

Bangla bowled very well and batted very sensibly but at the same time
they were not challenged well enough. The conditions were vastly
different in morning and afternoon in the match. And the team winning
toss will have undue advantage. Back to the point of what would
prevent Tamim from scoring a double century is that he has never
scored one before. Winning does bring burden and more fierce
opposition. Next step for Banglas is living up the reputation.
