Eoin Morgan Picks India As Favorite To Win World Cup 2023.
In anticipation of the highly-awaited ICC Cricket World Cup, Eoin Morgan, a former England cricketer, shared his thoughts on why the World Cup continues to hold its position as the pinnacle of the sport, even as One Day Internationals (ODIs) are becoming less frequent. This year’s edition of the tournament, scheduled from October 5 to November 19, will take place in India.
Eoin Morgan, known for his expertise and experience in the game, has already chosen his top contenders for the World Cup title. He expressed his confidence that both defending champions England and the host country India would progress to the knockout stages after the league matches. Given their recent performances and strong squads, these two teams are considered among the favorites to clinch the trophy.
Morgan said โWhen it comes to the business end of the tournament, I have no doubt England will be there, I have no doubt India will be there. And the other teams I would probably see potentially lifting the trophy are Australia and Pakistan, two very very strong teams, and two contenders when it comes to big competitions. They have a lot of talent to work with. Playing cricket in India, particularly the 50-over format, you need to have all bases covered, and I would say those teams do.โ
