Sandz Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Team 2 , they have more clutch players and slightly longer and better batting line up overall + a better keeper batsman. Link to comment
AuxiliA Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Team 2 They have a significantly stronger middle order, which will be the difference. Link to comment
zen Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 (edited) Team 1 as it has a stronger bowling attack. I like a team with 4 pace options, and spinners like Ashwin and Kumble can bowl at various phases too. Pace Zaheer Shami SDP Ganguly Spin Kumble Ashwin (known to be effective against left handers - 4 in the top 7 of Team 2) Jadeja Sehwag (can be used against left handers if required) PS Team 2 has a relatively inadequate bowling attack. Its two main spinners (Bhajji & Kukdeep) mainly bring the ball into right handers, which Team 1 has plenty (including spin bashers like Sehwag, Ganguly’ & Hardik). Yuvi may not be effective with the ball under the current rules and playing style. Edited May 4, 2023 by zen Link to comment

Youre right about team 2 spin attack- I wanted each team to have one wrist spinner each, and I could not think of a leggie aside from Chahal so went for Kuldeep; felt Yuvraj (who youre probably right about current rules, but is still a accruate SLA) and to a lesser extent Raina gave Team 2 some options. It is also why I put Jasprit in there, to give the overall attack some more bite. I think with Jasprit Team 2 pace attack is just a bit better than 1's ALso good point on Ashwin vs lefties didnt think of that :-) Link to comment

I didnt see it that way... Dravid SR will definitely be a concern but at his ODI peak he was a brisk accumulator, him and Virat will be a good duo laying a foundation for Hardik Link to comment

I think with Jasprit Team 2 pace attack is just a bit better than 1's I rate Team 1 pace attack better for the Zaheer + Shami combo, supported by Hardik who can ball at pace both outswinger and I swing now. Team 1 has Bumrah. Irfan as 2nd or 3rd bowler will lose some effectiveness if it does not swing (or when it stops swinging). Not sure if Kapil would survive today’s big hitting (bowled mostly with the red ball in an era of no power plays. In 1992 WC, he wasn’t that effective bowling with white ball and in power play).

Team 2 just has too much fire power and have clutch players too who have won a WC. Team 1 bowling looks stronger though, mostly in the spin department. Link to comment
Majestic Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Team 2..Any team with MSD as captain will win. Link to comment

IndiaWC8311 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Team 2 will win Yuvi, MSD and Raina is as clutch as it comes. Add in Bumrah and Kapil Paji and GG and it becomes too formidable Link to comment

Yuvi, dhongi, raina, kapil, gambho is a solid combo. bowling is weak though Link to comment
