  • KUMAR SANGAKKARA Published 1.6.19 the ICC World Cup Was Kick
    KUMAR SANGAKKARA Published 1.6.19 The ICC World Cup was kick-started by a blistering performance from England, the pre-tournament favourites for most pundits. They are also in my top four for the tournament and showed why with a clever and clinical performance against South Africa. South Africa are not a bad team, indeed they have some real match winners, but some of the teams in this World Cup are so strong that it’s going to be tough for any team that is not a complete all-around unit with top-class in-form players in all posi�ons. While my heart beats for Sri Lanka, and I hope things click and we build up some momentum with a collec�ve effort, my predicted top four at the start are England, India, Australia and then either New Zealand or West Indies. We also saw West Indies in ac�on on Friday and they started with a cap�va�ng performance full of pace and aggression from their fast bowlers. Great to see “Dre” Russell back for them in ODI cricket; if he stays fully fit, he could light up this World Cup with bat and ball. Sri Lanka in their warm-up games have played average cricket. It’s not been too bad, but neither has it been especially good. Their ba�ng has been steady, and it has been good to see Dimuth (Karuna- ratne) scoring some runs. As the new captain with very li�le ODI cricket experience in the recent past, he needs to lead from the front with the bat and be tac�cally smart on the field.
