Our Take
India will be starting its World Cup preparations with a full bang, as the team approaches the big tournament. Since the venues have also been announced, India will be having the majority of its games in South Africa. Along with that, players will also have to do well in the bilateral series which are coming next, which will further help to ensure that the best are able to make it to the World Cup.
