3 Players who can help India lift the ICC World Cup 2019
The ICC World Cup 2019 is set to take place this year. The Indian cricket team open their World Cup campaign against South Africa and finish their group stage on July 8 against Sri Lanka.
There are many teams that are going to play in the World Cup with the tag of favorites like Australia, England and even South Africa to some extent. It's going to be interesting to see how India perform against these quality opponents.
India will be taking their best squad to England in a bid to win the World Cup again after eight years. They will also be taking the pitch under a new captain in the form of Virat Kohli, having been led by MS Dhoni in the previous World Cup.
Here, we look at 3 players in the squad who will have to be at their best if India want to win the World Cup this year.
#1 Virat Kohli
Virat Kohli is going to be the most important batsman for India in the upcoming World Cup. His batting skills will get tested by the playing conditions in England, and his captaincy decisions are also going to be crucial.
Kohli will have to put all his experiences together to lead the nation to World Cup glory. He will also have to look for runs against almost every opponent he faces.
He has been in excellent form lately, and the other Indian players will be looking at him to set an example. He scored a brilliant century against Australia in the one-day series currently going in Australia.
If Kohli can perform at his best by showcasing his batting form and his captaincy skills, India will be on their way to raising another World Cup this year.
