The big event of the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 is going to start from 5 October 2023 and the experts are busy giving their opinion as to which teams will be able to make it in the semi-finals or which teams are the favourites to win the trophy.
The former England cricketer Michael Vaughan recently stated that it will be very difficult for any team to defeat the Indian side and the team which will be able to defeat India will win the trophy.
Now the former Pakistani cricketer Salman Butt has spoken on the same lines and this is what he said on his YouTube channel, “India are the only one in world cricket to have this ultimate rise. Everyone is talking about four teams to watch out for in the upcoming World Cup. However, what I believe is that the team that beats India will win the World Cup. India are the best team. Their batting is complete, and their bowling is most suitable to these conditions. Unless they themselves make mistakes, it is unlikely that any team will be even near them.”
Salman Butt further talked about the improvements that have come in Indian cricket. He said, “India have improved significantly over the past few years. The fitness levels of these players are far better than what we say 15 years back. Similarly, the fielding standards have also improved. From infrastructure to commentators to experts to their kit, everything related to cricket in India is top-notch.”
India is certainly a tough team to defeat and it will also get the home advantage. What do you say?
