Last group tie hit by rain
PORT-OF-SPAIN (Trinidad), March 25: Bermuda were struggling at 17-3 in 7.4 overs against Bangladesh when rain stopped play in their last World Cup Group B match at the Queen's Park Oval here on Sunday.
Opener Oliver Pitcher was batting on eight and skipper Irvine Romaine on one after the match was reduced to 30-overs-a-side due to rain.
Opener Stephen Outerbridge, Delyone Borden and David Hemp were the batsmen dismissed after Bermuda had been put in to bat.
Bangladesh need to win this game to qualify for the second round. Sri Lanka were the first team to qualify for the Super Eights with an all-win record.
India have finished their group campaign with one win and two defeats. They can still qualify for the second round if Bermuda beat Bangladesh.
