Waqar Younis announced the 2 finalists of World Cup 2023

Waqar's predictions for the two finalists of the ODI World Cup 2023 are as follows

In a recent conversation with Star Sports, Waqar made some bold predictions regarding the ODI World Cup 2023 finalists. Interestingly, he omitted his own home country, Pakistan, from his picks, which didn’t come as a surprise given his previous comment about the weakness of the Pakistan cricket team.

Waqar’s predictions for the two finalists of the ODI World Cup 2023 are as follows:

India:
India holds a prominent place among Waqar’s top picks. With two previous ODI World Cup victories and a rich cricketing history, they are a formidable team. Hosting the 2023 World Cup gives them a significant advantage, as playing on home turf often proves to be a game-changer, thanks to the passionate Indian cricket fans’ unwavering support.

India’s team is stacked with world-class players who consistently perform on the international stage. Their combination of experienced veterans and talented youngsters equips them with the skills and experience needed to go the distance. Waqar’s prediction of India reaching the final is not only a recognition of their past successes but also a testament to their formidable cricketing prowess.

England:
Waqar also included the defending ODI World Cup champions, England, in his list of finalists for the 2023 edition. England’s resurgence in white-ball cricket in recent years has been remarkable. They have transformed into a formidable force in limited-overs cricket, gaining accolades and fans worldwide for their aggressive style of play.

The defending champions boast a squad filled with match-winners capable of altering the game’s course in an instant. Their fearless approach to the game, ability to adapt to various conditions, and never-give-up attitude make them a formidable contender. England’s strong track record in white-ball cricket, coupled with their determination to retain the title in India, aligns with Waqar’s prediction of them making it to the finals.
