World Cup is like Olympics for minnows: Bagai

Canadian captain Ashish Bagai is not impressed with the way associate teams have performed in the ongoing World Cup. Bagai feels none of the weaker teams have made an impact in this tournament, except Ireland.

"Minnows have not been able to upset many teams in this World Cup. Our batting especially has been really disappointing. The World Cup is like Olympics for the minnows and we need to do well in the games ahead," said the wicketkeeper-batsman at a promotional event yesterday. Canada and New Zealand will clash at Wankhede Stadium on Sunday.

"Teams like us help cricket to grow globally. We want to do well in the remaining matches and hope for a better performance in the next T20 World Cup,"he said.
