India a strong team for World Cup: Dilip Vengsarkar
Former Indian player Dilip Vengsarkar believes that India have a strong team for the World Cup.
The World Cup will be played in the subcontinent and India is hosting maximum matches. Like most fans, the former Indian players are also hopeful that their side would lift the trophy after 28 years.
Dilip Vengsarkar, member of the WC winning squad, says http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 are one of the best teams in the world. He says playing at home will be a huge advantage for them.
India has performed exceptionally well in the recent plays.
Vengsarkar says India have a strong batting line-up and they will be the World Cup favorites. “Hard-hitting Yousaf Pathan and Yuvraj Singh will play a crucial role in the mega event.”
“Both these players are explosive players of the Indian side and can take the match away from any side in no time,” he said.
Yuvraj, however, did not have a perfect ODI series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757 and managed only one fifty. Yousaf Pathan had a much better time with the bat, scoring a fifty and a century in the series.
Pathan was at his best in the last match of the series when he struck 8 sixes in his knock of 105. India seems to have realised that playing in their own backyard, their batsmen should score quick runs.
Vengsarkar says wickets will be quite drier in the month of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/March-c74391 and this factor will help the Indian bowlers in the middle overs. “The spinning tracks may also prove beneficial for them.”
