Melbourne: Bangladesh skipper Mashrafe Mortaza was very matter-of-fact in his admission that the batting line-up of his opposition team was world-class, ahead of today's quarter-final against India at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

"(India captain Mahendra Singh) Dhoni is a tremendous one-day batsman and a genuine match-winner and then there's Virat Kohli. Overall, I think the Indian batting is the best in the world, so it is a challenge for our bowlers. We have to bowl well, definitely. It is our biggest challenge to bowl against Indian batsmen," the 31-year-old all-rounder said at the pre-match press conference at the MCG yesterday.
