All the teams are practicing hard for this great tournament. Meanwhile, former West Indies batsman Brian Lara has made predictions about the final of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Brian Lara wishes that the final of this great tournament should be played between India and West Indies. Brian Lara also believes that Suryakumar Yadav should bat at number three for India in the upcoming tournament. Let us tell you, Rohit Sharma will captain the Indian team in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, while Hardik Pandya has been appointed as vice-captain. Apart from Rohit Sharma, there is also Virat Kohli in the team and both these players would like to bat well in the upcoming tournament. Suryakumar Yadav would also like to perform well in this tournament. Brian Lara said, ‘My advice is that Suryakumar Yadav should come to bat at number 3 for the Indian team. He is one of the best batsmen in T20 cricket. If you talk to Sir Vivian Richard, he will tell you how he was desperate to bat. I feel something similar with Suryakumar Yadav also. According to me, if Suryakumar Yadav is sent to bat early, he can do wonders in 10-15 overs. Not only this, if you send him to bat early, he will put you in a winning position and the rest of the batsmen will also do their job well. ICC T20 World Cup 2024 final should be between India and West Indies: Brian Lara Brian Lara further said, ‘West Indies should do well. They have many players who can perform well as a team. The Indian team can also make its place in the semi-finals. The England team likes West Indies very much and it can also make its place in the top 4. Afghanistan can reach fourth place as a darkhorse. The final between India and West Indies will compensate for the mistakes made in the past. In 2007, India could not reach the second round and we had to suffer the consequences of this. We don’t want this to happen again so I want to see the final between India and West Indies. India has very good spinners and the team’s lineup is also very good. The best thing about Indian spinners is that they can give you wickets at regular intervals and can also restrict the runs. I want to see the final between these two teams. 5 Australian players who scored half century in debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10…
