On India’s chances of winning the 2023 World Cup, Viv Richards makes a big statement, saying, “I believe they can go all the way unbeaten"
The battalion legend of the West Indies, Sir Viv Richards, has asserted that the Indian team, under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, has the capability to remain unbeaten in the 2023 World Cup and clinch the ICC trophy. He urged the Men in Blue to banish any negative thoughts of a bad game being around the corner.
Team India has been the most dominant team in the league stage of the ongoing World Cup. With eight wins in eight matches, they are assured of finishing on top of the points table and remain the only side yet to taste defeat in the tournament.
While India is being called the favorites to win the 2023 World Cup, there are some apprehensions among fans and critics owing to the team’s poor record in ICC knockout clashes. However, in his column for the ICC, Richards wrote: "I believe they [India] can go all the way unbeaten, which is really something to strive for. There may be some fear that ‘we have played so well so far that there may be a bad game around the corner in the semi-final’. They have to try to nullify those and banish any negative thoughts."
