10:33:24 Cricket World Cup, India vs Australia Playing 11 LIVE updates | Why Australia is always a threat

Never judge a book by its cover and rule out an Australian cricket team from title contention at your own peril, are the two old concrete jungle sayings.

 

The five-time ICC ODI World Cup champions, at least on paper, can't be rated ahead of India and England during this edition of the tournament.

 

But the quality of this team is such that one won't be surprised if it pulls a rabbit out of the hat at some point in time during the tournament.

 

Australia begin their campaign against India in Chennai on October 8.

Suresh Raina talked about India's strenghth going into the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023

The southpaw said that he is confident for different reasons, like a bowling line-up well aware of home conditions, experience of spinner Ravichandran Ashwin and fitness, and performances of Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj. He is also very confident if the top three batters, skipper Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill and Rohit Sharma can bat for 25-30 overs, a lot of runs will be made.

 

"I have that confidence for several reasons. We have a very good bowling line-up who know how to bowl in the conditions. Ravi Ashwin, who was part of our winning squad in 2011, is now in the squad and adds that experience, and having Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj firing again after their injuries is massive. Our pace attack complements each other well and Bumrah, in particular, is looking sorted now. He has recovered well and he is a very important player in this World Cup," said Raina.
