Indian Batters

India will be looking to their batters to put up some big scores in the 2019 ICC World Cup. Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan are likely to open the batting for India, with Virat Kohli coming in at number three. These three batsmen are all world-class players and will be key to India’s chances of success in the tournament.

The middle order is where things start to get a bit more uncertain for India. While there are some very talented players like MS Dhoni, Kedar Jadhav and Dinesh Kartik in the squad, they all have a tendency to be inconsistent. If India are going to make it deep into the tournament, they will need these players to step up and deliver when it matters most.

The bowling attack is also an area of concern for India. While Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami are world-class bowlers, they will need some support from the likes of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Hardik Pandya if they are going to be successful in the World Cup.

Indian Bowlers

India’s bowling attack is one of the best in the world. Led by Jasprit Bumrah, India has a strong pace attack which also includes Mohammed Shami, Umesh Yadav and Ishant Sharma. India also has a good spin attack with Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja.

India’s bowling has been very good in recent times. In the 2015 World Cup, India had the second best bowling average. In the 2016 World T20, India had the best bowling average. And in the 2017 Champions Trophy, India again had the second best bowling average.

India will be looking to their bowlers to continue their good form in the 2019 World Cup.
