India – Cricket World Cup 2019

India – Cricket World Cup 2019

It was way back in the 1987 World Cup that India had the luxury of playing 2 quality of seam-bowling all-rounders. And 32 years on, they have the same luxury once again. In no way am I saying that Hardik Pandya and Vijay Shankar are the same as Kapil Dev and Roger Binny ( they can’t be as well; not yet.) Another interesting trivia is that the last time India went with 2 seam bowling all-rounders to England for a World Cup, it was in 1983. No point there, just a trivia for you. The result of 2 seam-bowling all-rounders, dare I say, is that India looks lies a 3-dimensional side. I’d say get your 3-D glasses on.
