If cricket was started by the British, it was the Australians who started the one-day internationals. Even after the T-20 storm taking over; ODIs still rule the cricket world for the last 5 decades.

ICC World Cup 2019 Predictions

The predictions could vary about who could win the world cup or what are the chances for India to win the world cup. There are many methods now being adopted by the cricket enthusiasts for these predictions. Since artificial intelligence is a scientific way of calculating numbers, it is now used to predict the outcome of matches and thus even the winners of the ICC world cup. They take into account the various numbers and statistics of the previous matches including the scores, run rates, batting & bowling averages, individual cricketers performances, and many more to arrive at a statistical point of prediction for the ICC world cup 2019.

Statistical ICC World Cup 2019 Predictions

Out of the 10 nations and 45 matches, individual records of previous matches and current form of players are listed below:

  • England

England, being the host have the advantage of home grounds and crowd support. But there is also tremendous pressure on winning the world cup as being the host. The team has the best batting line up and acclaimed all-rounders. But their concern could be of the less charged frontline bowling line up. Having not even won even one world cup so far despite being the nation who introduced the game of cricket to the world is their big worry and disadvantage. Maybe this year being the host could get their long wait come to an end.

  • Best Performers: Joe Root & Ben Stokes
  • Winning Chances: 25 %
  • Australia

The defending champions and five-time world cup winners so far are not in good shape this time. The three consecutive wins of the world cups in 1999, 2003 and 2007 made them unbeatable in cricket for more than a decade. But the recent banning of their key players Steve Smith and David Warner caused a shadow on their winning chances. Even though the ban period concludes one month before the world cup starts, it is unlikely they will play in the world cup.

  • Best Performers: Mitchell Starc
  • Winning Chances: 15 %
  • South Africa

The 20 years of international cricket ban did not stop South Africa to produce great cricketers since they started to play from 1991. But the world cup has been always eluded to them so far. AB De Villiers will be missed because of his retirement. Yet Proteas could spring in surprises in this world cup.

  • Best Performers: Hashim Amla
  • Winning Chances: 20 %
  • Pakistan

The strong and fierce bowling line up of Pakistan could spring surprises and they could be the best on certain days against any team in the world.

  • Best Performers: Mohammad Amir
  • Winning Chances: 10 %
  • India

The recent non-inclusion of MS Dhoni in the ODI squad could be a crucial factor for good or bad. The world cup could be brought to India with the performance of Virat Kohli, the firebrand batsman and captain. The middle order batting line-up is the cause of concern. If the bowlers and the middle order do their job perfectly India stands to win the world cup.

  • Best Performers: Virat Kohli
  • Winning Chances: 28 %

The other 5 teams could bring in their best performances and could win the world cup also. But their chances as per their form and record are less than 10 % and hence only with improved skills and spirit they have a chance of winning the world cup.

Conclusion

Cricket is a game. It is beyond everything. Just enjoying the game for its glory and skill will be the best way to enjoy this world cup 2019. But as an Indian everyone would wish and pray for a third time win for India in the world cup 2019.
