World Cup 2015: Five tips for Dhoni to ensure victory against Bangladesh

World Cup 2015: Five tips for Dhoni to ensure victory against Bangladesh: India is firm favorite to beat Bangladesh in the Quarter Final and advance into the Semi-Final of the World Cup but as the old clichés says ‘Cricket is a game of uncertainty’ in which any team can defeat anyone on a one particular day. So here are the few things which Indian captain should keep in mind before stepping onto the field at the Melbourne Cricket ground. 1. Avoid complacency Rohit Sharma’s form has been a result of being complacent.

This is exactly what Indian team needs to avoid in their Quarter Final match against Bangladesh. In the 2007 World Cup, they already faced the ramifications of taking Bangladesh lightly. So to avoid a similarly tragic incident, Indian team must come out all guns blazing against the Bangladesh. 2.Take one match at a Time India needs to focus on the game against Bangladesh(© Getty Images) Quarter Final hasn’t started yet and many of the enthusiasts and even experts have started talking about the clash of India and Australia in the semi-finals. The advice for the Indian players would be to focus on one match at a time and don’t look too far ahead, first win the Quarter Final against Bangladesh and then think about the challenge of either Australia or Pakistan in the semis. 3. Aggressive Bowling Mohd. Shami’s form has been one of the reasons for India’s success in group stages.(Photo Source : Getty Images) Indian bowling has been at its best throughout the group stages of the World Cup because the bowling unit has always looked to pick wickets instead of containing the runs. They have picked 60 wickets in 6 matches by bowling some aggressive line and length and have also used the bouncers very astutely. The Indian bowlers should look to do the same things in the Quarter-Final against Bangladesh. 4. Intensity on Field Fielding was the reason India won the match against South Africa and Pakistan. (Photo Source: Getty Images) Intensity on the field has been terrific so far in the tournament. Every good stop or a decent throw in the field is followed by a pat on the back or a clap. These little things on the field matter a lot and lifts the morale of the side massively. India should keep displaying the same intensity on the field in the Quarter-Final match too. 5. Consider it as any other match We know how calm minded and focused MS Dhoni is.

If Indian team play to their potential, their strengths and are able to replicate the form it has shown in the group stage, then it will be extremely difficult for the Bangladesh to challenge them.
