The heat of the 13th Cricket World Cup has spread all over the world. There is no doubt that this tournament held in India will be very intense. This year’s tournament will be held until November 19, starting with the match between the reigning world champions, England, and the runners-up, New Zealand, on October 5th.
The team that many believe will win the World Cup this year is India. The reason for this is that the Indian team is in a very strong position. In addition, India will get an additional advantage by holding this tournament in India.
The Indian players who defeated Sri Lanka very easily and took the Asian Cup to their country are now at the level of showing their best skills.
After a long time, this tournament will be held in the round-robin system. The first round consists of 45 matches, so each team must participate in 9 matches. Therefore, there is no doubt that the tournament will be drawn until the end, with a sharp nature from match to match.
All the 9 teams except the Netherlands team will not give up the goal of winning the cup this year. But the Netherlands team will become a great challenge for the other teams in this tournament.
The reason for that is that if the match against the Netherlands is lost, the ability of the losing team to come forward in the standings will be challenged to some extent. Losing the easiest match to win means losing the two points.
Therefore, there is no doubt that the decision of the match against the Netherlands is very valuable for all other teams
The other weak teams behind the Netherlands are Sri Lanka, Afghanistan and Bangladesh. Even though they are runners-up in the Asian Cup, the Sri Lankan team is not in a very reliable position at the moment. The batsmen and bowlers of the Sri Lankan team, which is not an equal-weight, do not show any kind of consistency, so the Sri Lankan players must keep their game style very high in order to face the semi-finals in this tournament.
However, if other strong teams are thinking of underestimating the Sri Lankan team, it is not a good idea.
Also, Afghanistan, as well as Bangladesh are not teams that can be underestimated. Both of those teams enter this tournament with the aim of coming forward by giving a good fight to other strong teams.
Looking at the way both teams played in the past, they are not can be underestimated in any way.
It is very difficult to imagine what the South African team will do in this series.
South Africa is the unluckiest team in the World Cup so far. No matter how strong they are, they have not had the luck to play the final of any World Cup yet.
India, Australia, England, New Zealand and Pakistan are among the five leading teams in the battle to win this year’s World Cup.
Among these five teams, the two most balanced teams are England and India
England, who are the champions of the last tournament, will not leave any chance for others to win the World Cup this year.
The Indian team will not allow the trophy of the tournament held in their country to be taken to another country anyway.
Also, Australia, who were the champions of the World Cup for the most number of times, will make a strong effort to get the crown this time as well. New Zealand, who were the runners-up last time, will also take a step forward and hope to win the trophy.
India’s strong rival Pakistan not only hopes to win the World Cup but also experiences the absolute joy of defeating the power of their worldly enemy through the game of cricket.
Looking at this, the strongest battle in this tournament is the first-round match between India and Pakistan. There is no doubt that this match will attract more attention than the final .
A match between India and Pakistan, the two countries with the biggest cricket fans among the cricket-playing countries, is like a war anyway. So when competing for the World Cup, it should be considered as a nuclear war. As the tournament is being held in India, the situation may become more complicated.
If Indian and Pakistani sports fans who dream of seeing a final between India and Pakistan are able to fulfil that dream in this tournament, it will undoubtedly be a mind-blowing event in the history of the World Cup.
But the saddest thing in this tournament is the situation inherited by the West Indies, a team that should be in the tournament. The West Indies, who kept their name by turning the cricket world upside down, unfortunately, have to watch the tournament from their home.
