How to Watch India vs. Bangladesh Cricket World Cup Match Live Online

By NDTV Correspondent | Updated: 19 March 2015 10:34 IST

The second quarter final of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 sees India take on Bangladesh at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. India are on a roll this Cricket World Cup, having won all six matches they played in the group stages.

The Indian cricket team, usually known for its batting prowess, has surprised critics and fans with some lethal bowling. This World Cup, India has taken 10 wickets in each of the six matches it has played. India finished top of Pool B, while its quarter final opponent Bangladesh finished fourth in Pool A. Bangladesh pulled off a big upset by beating England and will be hoping that India becomes the next cricketing giant it defeats this ICC Cricket World Cup. Bangladesh had defeated India in the 2007 Cricket World Cup, which eliminated the men in blue from the group stages of the tournament.

However, this Indian side seems to be up for the challenge and is expected to progress to the semi finals. You can use social media or apps to track the latest updates from the match, but there's nothing like watching live video starting 9am IST, when the match begins. If you're stuck in office or don't have a TV, you can still watch India vs Bangladesh live online.
