Former cricketer Syed Kirmani says, “India will win the World Cup.”
Syed Kirmani, who was one of the crucial players in India's 1983 World Cup victory, has helped India win the World Cup on the back of their exceptional performances throughout the tournament. Kirmani, along with the iconic cricketer of South Africa, Jonty Rhodes, travelled in the Vande Bharat Express from Bhopal to Delhi on Thursday. After arriving in Delhi, Kirmani was asked about the recent performance of team India, and he said that “India will win the World Cup; they have played very well.”
After playing exceptional cricket throughout the tournament, South Africa and India both qualified for the semi-final stage, but a single defeat in the final four made all their efforts futile.
Rhodes expressed his happiness about the individual and team performances that have contributed to making the entire tournament great and how things will get difficult from this point.
Rhodes said, “It has been a great tournament very well hosted by India. Some of the cricket, whether it is from the team or an individual, has been amazing. From here, it only gets tougher because the stakes go up.”
