Not to mention Mr. 360, ex-South Africa player, ex-RCB player AB de Villiers. ABD, who played many memorable innings for South Africa, got closer to the Indian audience through IPL. He continued to be a key player for Royal Challengers Bangalore for several years. It is known that the ODI World Cup will be held in India this year. But many formers have already predicted the teams that will reach the semifinals. These four teams are expected to reach the knockout stage. Mr. 360 also joined the list.
ABD, who recently spoke to a YouTube channel, predicted which teams will reach the semis. There are three other teams along with India in this list “India will definitely be among the teams that will reach the semis. They will be there to win. There is no doubt about that. England and Australia will also reach the semis. These are three strong teams. If I choose South Africa for the remaining one berth. Pakistan is also a strong contender. But I would choose South Africa.”
Which teams will reach the final..
“India-England teams will reach the final. If my prediction comes true and those two teams reach the final… it will be really amazing. But I hope our team (South Africa) will reach the final. It is not easy for England-India to reach the final. But they have the ability.”
Talking about Virat Kohli..
Kohli and ABD have provided many memorable victories for Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL. There was a friendship between the two of them then. ABD also talked about Kohli’s performance in the ODI World Cup.
“If Virat Kohli shines in the ODI World Cup, India has a chance to win the title. The team’s chances of success depend on Virat’s performance. Kohli is my favorite IPL batsman. I enjoy batting with him a lot. He always inspires the players. Kohli is very aggressive on the field. He plays with the aim of winning. But off the field. But he is very calm. That is Kohli’s specialty.”
In another month and a half, the ODI World Cup will start in India. The mega tournament will be held from October 5 to November 19.
