ICC Champions Trophy 2017: 5 reasons why Bangladesh can beat India in the semi-finals

#2 Dark-horses: A tag devoid of expectations

Bangladesh, on the contrary, will be playing their first ever Champions Trophy semi-final game and quite expectantly, they will be the underdogs. However, the tag can work to their advantage as it allows a team to play freely with less burden on the shoulders.

While the cricketing fraternity would expect India to beat Bangladesh, Mashrafe Mortaza’s men would be straining every muscle in registering a historic win against and make their way into the Finals of the ICC Champions Trophy.
