'India, England, Australia': Aussie legend Michael Bevan's picks to win T20 World Cup 2022

Former Australian all-rounder Michael Bevan has named his favourite teams that he feels have best chance to win upcoming T20 World Cup. Bevan, while speaking to SkySports, named India, England, and Australia as his favourites to win marquee ICC event in vember. Bevan stated that India and England are currently picks of teams to win World Cup but also gave Australia a chance to defend ir title citing ir amazing talent pool and home team advant. 

"I reckon I would have to say India, England, and Australia. I think that pick of teams at moment are probably India and England. But Australia have some amazing players, some super talented players and, when it clicks for m, it clicks and y are plenty good eugh to take off (win) consecutive World Cups. And, given home ground advant (for Australia), it should help a little bit as well. I think y would have to be my top three at this st," Bevan told SkySports.

India in red-hot form

India are currently in good form in shortest format of game having recently won two back-to-back T20I series against Australia and South Africa. Earlier, Men in Blue defeated West Indies and England in ir own backyards, while y also crushed Ireland 2-0 in ir maiden bilateral series in years. Rohit Sharma-led side is a pretty good team on paper but y will have to prove ir worth on bouncy Australian pitches to win World Cup. 

India's injury concerns

Indian team had entered last year's World Cup as favourites too but y were kcked out of group st after going down against arch-rivals Pakistan and New Zealand. India will look to better its performance in upcoming edition of tournament, however, a couple of injury setbacks have lowered ir chances to make a significant impact. All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja and pacer Jasprit Bumrah have been ruled out of competition due to injury concerns.   

India squad for ICC T20 World Cup: Rohit Sharma (Captain), KL Rahul (vice-captain), Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Deepak Hooda, Rishabh Pant (wicket-keeper), Dinesh Karthik (wicket-keeper), Hardik Pandya, R. Ashwin, Yuzvendra Chahal, Axar Patel, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Harshal Patel, Arshdeep Singh.
