with Jasprit Bumrah leading the charge is the best in the WC, he's not the only one doing the damage, it's the added quality of their spin attack which takes their attack to an even higher level. India is also advantaged by being accustomed to sub continent wickets.
Markram and Quinton have the advantage of having faced them in the IPL besides the former is a good player of pace.
So yeah, if we hold our nerve and a few things go our way then who knows how things will pan out. I'm curious to see how the much improved Rickelton fares, it will be his stiffest test to date but with a fresh new mental approach, a much improved technique and a desire to be out in the middle he could well prove to be our batting hero.
And then of course there's young Brevis, he has no fear, has enormous self belief and in no uncertain manner will take it to the Indian attack. There is no-one better when he's firing on all four. GL to him.
Rabada will have to come to the party in his finest, he's a class act, he just needs to have found his mojo and alongside of Jansen and Bosch who are both in good form we might just have enough in the tank to rattle the Indian batsmen.
On paper the Indians are better than the Proteas but no team has won on paper.
