Five reasons why India will defeat England to win the Champions Trophy

2. The Spin Wizards

India’s spinners have lead the attack in England where conditions have offered greater assistance to the fast bowlers. R. Ashwin and R. Jadeja form a formidable partnership as MS Dhoni uses them to shackle the run-rate in the middle overs. Jadeja’s natural variation with the odd turning ball is complemented by the diverse repertoire of Ashwin’s bowling. Together, the two have scalped a stunning figure of 16 wickets in 4 games. England are no more particularly vulnerable to spin, but if conditions offer a bit of spin and bounce, as they usually have done in this tournament, they will have to bat well to quell the threat of the spin wizards.
