28 Jan, 2024 By Editor

As India battle hard against England in Hyderabad in the opening Test match that is witnessing the England batters making life tough for the Indian bowlers on Day 3, former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly had a massive prediction to make. He opined that almost every Test match in the series will produce a result and the series win could belong to the hosts.

Talking in a media interaction in an event, Sourav said, “India will win the series, the matter is whether they will win it 4-0 or 5-0. Every Test will be decisive. England could have won this Test match had they batted well. One cannot win against India by making 230 or 240 runs on Indian soil.”

He further added, “Had they made 350 or 400, they could have beaten India, but they weren't able to do that. It's a tough series for England. Any team other than the Australia of that era could not create any impact here.”

Shedding some light on India’s chances at the T20 World Cup, Sourav said, “India have a good chance in the T20 World Cup. Recently, India played in the World Cup final, and it was miserable that they lost against Australia. I didn't expect that after playing in a very good manner throughout the tournament they will lose, but it happens in sports.”

He eventually concluded by saying, “India is a very good side. There will be another opportunity for India as the conditions in the West Indies and America are like India. The IPL will serve as a preparation for the World Cup.”
