Well India have shown that they can perform well on pitches like the ones they will be playing on in England. Australia and New Zealand have similar pitches to the ones in England and as we know India won both ODI series playing in Australia and New Zealand so I think that playing on the English pitches won't be as bad as what people might think. England and India might be the hot favourites however I wouldn't count out New Zealand, SA and Australia. Even the WI are coming into form at the right time so it could be wide open this year.
If England introduces seaming pitches in this world cup(Which is very unlikely except a couple of matches) then its very close call for top5 teams. no one plays that good in seaming conditions. India can somehow manage the damage because of their bowling with some master class inning from Virat.
Rohit-Dhawan duo is crucial for India. Rohit struggles when the ball moves but he's damn fine batsman if he gets going. Dhawan loves ICC tournaments.
Lol you basically named all the teams haha, let's add Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afganistan and Sri lanks too
