Rapid action battalion commandos and police personnel escorted the 15-member Indian squad to theSheraton Hotel in two vehicles. The route from the Hazrat Shah Jalal airport to the hotel was heavily guarded by the police.


The grand opening ceremony will take place on Thursday at the Bangabandhu Stadium here, which will be attended by all 14 captains of the participating nations.

The Bangladeshi capital, which has spruced up itself for the biggest event in their cricketing history, will put on a two-hour long spectacle of song, dance and laser shows during the opening ceremony.
