The defending champions India suffered their first defeat against Sri Lanka in England after 38 years, which also hampered their chances of making it into the knockout stages. Despite Shikhar Dhawan’s hundred and fifties by Rohit Sharma and MS Dhoni, India failed to defend their total of 321 against the Angelo Mathews-led Sri Lankan side. After a massive 124 runs victory over arch-rivals Pakistan, India was considered to be one of the title contenders.
