Canada have already claimed a shock victory by beating Ireland, and the USA’s triumph over Pakistan is one of the greatest upset in cricket’s history. But an Indian defeat here today would shift the game off its axis.

Unfortunately, it does have a cover. Fasten your seatbelts, everyone. You may be waiting a while.
In the meantime, why not give it a read? Andy Bull Let’s think about what legacy this World Cup will leave.

preamble
Daniel Gallant
They couldn’t. Could they?
Canada has already recorded a shock win over Ireland and the United States’ win over Pakistan was one of the biggest upsets in cricket history, but an Indian loss here today would change the course of the match.
I am not saying that this will happen. India has been flawless so far and it is almost impossible to imagine how their galaxy of stars could fail like this.
But this World Cup has been a strange one, and while there will likely be a predictable winner, the Canucks will be eager to prove they deserve to be named the top team by winning a tough battle.
My name is Dan. Please send me an email if you’d like. I’m looking forward to it. I’m sure it will be great.
The toss and teams will follow, with the first ball being thrown at 3:30 BST from Central Broward Regional Park, Florida.
