While England has the strongest batting line up heading into the World Cup, and South Africa has the strongest bowling line up, India seems to have the best combination of everything. Undoubtedly, England's weakness is potentially their underwhelming bowling attack which lacks firepower, while South African batsmen are currently out of form and may struggle to score the totals required to win in the batsman-friendly English conditions.

This isn't the case for the Indian team. Not only do the Indians have a team capable of posting scores between 350 to 400, they also have the bowlers which will restrict other teams to meager totals. This means that if India is able to string a few performances together they will be unstoppable. While India has previously lacked the killer fast paced bowler, Bhuvneshwar and Bumrah have added another dimension to the line-up that Indian fans have not seen since Zaheer Khan.
