Less than 50 days are left for the upcoming World Cup to be held in India. This is the reason why many veteran cricketers are constantly making predictions about their favorite teams before the World Cup. In this episode, South African veteran batsman AB de Villiers has also made two predictions. De Villiers not only predicted the 2023 World Cup win for the hosts but also named the four semi-finalist teams.
De Villiers believes that the Men in Blue can repeat the kind of story that Team India did in the 2011 World Cup under the leadership of MS Dhoni. The 2023 World Cup will be played in India from 5 October to 19 November. During the interaction with the fans on his YouTube channel, he answered many questions and then he also picked the semi-finalist teams of the World Cup.
Speaking on his YouTube channel, de Villiers said, "Definitely, India. I think he will win again. This is going to be a Fairy Tail World Cup. Three big teams like India, England, Australia will be in the semi-finals. Then I'd go with South Africa, however, Pakistan has a good chance too. So the fourth team would be South Africa. I have gone there with three non-subcontinent teams, which is very risky. But I will stick to it because I think the wickets will be good. I don't think bad wickets will be seen during the tournament in the World Cup.
How true this prediction of de Villiers will prove to be, only time will tell, but the way de Villiers has said that India can win the World Cup has made the Indian fans happy. In such a situation, there will be pressure of expectations once again on the Indian team. Let us tell you that the 2023 ODI World Cup will begin with the match between England and New Zealand at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
