He said that the teams of Australia, England, South Africa and India will participate in the semi-finals of the World Cup in India this year.
The former South African captain said, “I have included three non-Asian teams in my list which is risky but I will stick to it. I think India’s wickets will be good and India and England can reach the final.” Yes, during the World Cup I think we will not see bad wickets.
