Bangladesh were clear about their chances when they announced their final squad for the World Cup yesterday. ``We don't think we have any hope of winning a match,'' their team manager, Tanvir Mazharul Islam, said.

He added that even Scotland, who lost to Bangladesh in the International Cricket Council Trophy semi-final in Kuala Lumpur in 1997, were now a stronger team. Bangladesh won the trophy by beating Kenya, who have also announced their squad of 15 for the tournament.
