TIL Desk Sports/ Former captain Kapil Dev said the Indian team with its right balance of youth and experience along with the “unmatchable” duo of Virat Kohli and Mahendra Singh Dhoni will definitely reach the World Cup semi-finals but will need luck and strong team performance to progress beyond that.
“India has a great combination of youth and experience. In a way, they are more experienced than the other teams. They have the right balance — four fast bowlers, three spinners and they have Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni,” the International Cricket Council quoted Kapil Dev as saying on Thursday.
“Dhoni and Kohli have done extremely well for India. Both of them are unmatchable,” he said. The 60-year old former fast bowler said that India will definitely reach the semi-finals at the 2019 World Cup.
“I think India will definitely finish in the top four. After that, it will be really difficult. After the semi-finals, a stroke of luck alongside personal and team performance will determine who goes forward,” he added.
