India have never lost to their neighbours at the mega event, having beaten them in the five previous matches they met -- in 1992, 1996, 1999, 2003 and 2011.

However, Mahendra Singh Dhoni's team is in poor form going into the tournament, having failed to register a single victory in an international match since landing in Australia.
