The 2007 Cricket World Cup, which took place in the West Indies from 13 March to 28 April 2007, featured 16 teams, who were divided into four groups. Group B was made up of full ICC members Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka and associate member Bermuda. Sri Lanka won all three of their matches to finish top of the group and secure qualification for the Super Eights stage of the tournament. Bangladesh's victory over India in their opening match meant they finished as runners-up and joined Sri Lanka in the Super Eights, while India and Bermuda were knocked out. Sri Lanka went on to finish second in the Super Eights and then beat New Zealand in their semi-final before losing to Australia in the final.
