Their discussions focus on the relevance of key players. The selections of the selectors, and the issues that India faces in the future.
“I believe a lot depends on Bumrah’s fitness and longevity. ” I believe he is such an essential component for India because he impacts the game early and also seals the innings. And I think it’s going to be a challenging World Cup in terms of keeping your bowlers fit. It’s a long campaign, but India has plenty of variety on their side. “It’s just a matter of them making sure their key players, particularly their bowlers, are fit. ” Moody said on Star Sports’ Selection Day show.
“Yes, I believe the selectors did a good job given the options available to them.” The strategy is sound; now it’s time to execute in the main game. I believe India will qualify for the semi-finals, but the real test will come after the semi-finals. There are some good teams out there; we’ve seen some of them. “It won’t be easy, but it’s a good enough team to win the World Cup,” Manjrekar remarked.
Furthermore, Moody stressed the vital impact that home advantage may play for India, as well as the importance of key bowlers like Bumrah and Shami’s fitness.
“Yes, I believe they have a team capable of winning the World Cup.” I think home advantage will be a significant one for India, but I bring that issue around the fitness. “The fitness of Bumrah and Shami is critical to me because they are both high-quality new ball bowlers,” he said.
