India lost both of its opening matches and have left with almost zero chances to qualify into the semis. Technically, India`s future lies in the hands of the opposite teams.

During the 7th over of the match, the Scotland wicket-keeper was caught on the stump-mic, saying, "Whole India is behind you," to bowler Chris Greaves.

Scotland needed to defeat New Zealand, in order to strengthen India`s chances to qualify but unfortunately, they fell short of 16 runs and lost the match.
