“No doubt”, Mithali Raj makes a bold prediction about Team India in the 2022 T20 World Cup

The 2022 T20 World Cup is ongoing at the moment. India won its first two matches but suffered a loss to South Africa on Sunday. This has now put them in a situation wherein winning the next two games are important. On that note, here, we take a look as Mithali Raj makes a bold prediction about Team India in the ongoing 2022 T20 World Cup.

Mithali Raj makes a massive prediction about India in the 2022 T20 World Cup

Mithali Raj retired recently from all forms of the game. The former India cricketer made her commentatory debut in the recent India vs South Africa T20 World Cup clash on Star Sports. While speaking, she talked about India’s chances and the potential final game for the event.

Mithali said, “My predictions for the semi-final spot, that is four spots will be India and South Africa from Group 2. From Group 1, it will be New Zealand and a toss-up between England and Australia. And the finalists, there is no doubt, India has to be there, and New Zealand.”

It will be a tough challenge for the Indians

Team India has quite a few issues to contend with. Firstly, the team has to somehow fix its batting performance in the powerplay. The return in the first six overs has been disappointing and this has put pressure on the middle-order batters. If the likes of KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma can be more impactful as openers, Team India would be in a great position.

New Zealand, South Africa and England or Australia will all be firm challenges for the men in blue. While South Africa and New Zealand have a terrific pace attack, the English team has attacking batters who could destroy the Indian bowling attack on their day. If Indian cricketers play to their potential, though, they can win the event.
