The much-anticipated ODI Cricket World Cup 2023, which is set to start on October 5, has the entire cricket community counting down the days. The 2019 World Cup’s inaugural runners-up, New Zealand, and the reigning winners England will square off in Ahmedabad, the home of cricket. India, the host country, will begin its campaign against Australia on October 8 in Chennai, a mecca for cricket.
Few opinions in the world of cricket are as respected as those of former India captain Sunil Gavaskar.
The renowned cricketer, who is renowned for his keen analysis, has selected England as the World Cup team to watch. Sunil Gavaskar claims that England has a team that, on paper, looks fearsome and checks off most of the necessary requirements for World Cup success. The explosive all-rounder Ben Stokes‘ comeback from retirement has improved England’s chances even more.
“The defending champions, England, have two or three elite all-rounders who can alter the course of a game with both bat and ball because of the caliber of ability they possess at the top of the order, the batting order. They also have a highly talented and seasoned bowling lineup, which makes them the current favorites in my opinion, Sunil Gavaskar said on Star Sports.
The Indian Dream is given faith by Irfan Pathan.
Irfan Pathan, a former all-rounder for India, has backed his country in contrast. Pathan claims that the hosts are carefully lining up every component necessary for a successful campaign and are legitimately one of the favorites to win the prized ICC trophy. India’s recent success in the Asia Cup 2023 as well as their resounding series victory over Australia at home soon before the World Cup have undoubtedly improved their standing.
“I’m extremely interested to watch how India performs, and I firmly believe that they are among the favorites, especially in light of recent series, like as the Asia Cup, and the manner in which India performed against Australia at home. They appear to be fulfilling all requirements, according to Pathan.
