It was the first match for Mahendra Singh Dhoni the skipper and a dampened start at that, literally!

Scotland had won the toss and decided to field but the Durban weather gods had other plans. The match was called off without a ball being bowled and the two teams shared a point each.

This left India in a situation where they had to avoid a heavy defeat against Pakistan to make it to the Super Eight. Nobody knew what was coming their way.
