Former India cricketer Suresh Raina has shared his four favorite teams whom he thinks are favorites to win the upcoming ICC ODI World Cup 2023 which will begin in India from October 5 onwards.
The 13th edition of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup will begin with New Zealand taking on England in the opening encounter in Ahmedabad on October 5. Hosts India will play its first match against Australia in Chennai on October 8.
Suresh Raina, a key member of the 2011 World Cup-winning Indian team, shared his favorites to win the ICC World Cup 2023 and revealed that he thinks India, Australia, England, and Sri Lanka or Pakistan are strong contenders to lift the title.
Raina also expressed his hope for India to secure victories in both the ongoing Asia Cup and the upcoming World Cup.
"It would be amazing [to win both the Asia Cup and World Cup]. The last time we hosted the World Cup in India, we won it. And hopefully, we do it again. My best wishes to Rohit Sharma and the team. Just go out there and express yourself and go for the trophy,” Raina told Times of India.
India will clash with Sri Lanka in the final of the Asia Cup 2023 on Sunday, September 17.
