2 Reasons why the Indian Cricket Team Will Win This Years World Cup


  1.      India has one of the best spin bowlers in the world. Ravichandran  Ashwin at age 28 has become one of the elite bowlers in Indian history. Being on the National team for a couple of years now, he has become one of the best spinners ever. His off-break spin has led him to have a total of 119 wickets throughout his ODI (One Day International) career. But his bowling is not his only strength. Ashwin is also becoming an elite batter, in each game getting closer and closer to being one of the first batsmen up. With his dazzling spin and his batting ability, Ashwin has proven himself to be a key weapon for India this world cup.
  2.      The second reason to why India should be a top contender in this years world cup is their captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni. After announcing is retirement from test cricket Dhoni is getting closer to retiring. With Sachin Tendulkar retired Dhoni will have to up his game to bring India to another championship. In the 2011 ICC World Cup Dhoni hit the game winning sixer against Lasith Malinga of Sri Lanka, winning the Indian Nation Cricket team their second championship of all time. Dhoni's outstanding reflexes as the wicket-keeper for India, has made the Indian team one of the top contenders in every World Cup by collecting 85 wickets as the wicket-keeper.(not including the time when he bowled a wicket too) On the other hand, his batting ability is even more spectacular scoring 8,192 runs in his 10 year career. In conclusion, with these two weapons on Indi's side they will be one of the top contenders of this February's World Cup.
