This Indian Team Is Good Enough To Beat Any Side In The World, Says Parthiv Patel
World Test Championship: Ahead of India's three match Test series against New Zealand, former wicketkeeper-batter Parthiv Patel firmly believes the Rohit Sharma-led side is capable of beating any side in the world currently in the longest format of the game.
Since the time New Zealand beat India in 2021 World Test Championship final, India made it to another final in 2023 and is currently the top-ranked side in this format. They are also coming off after a 2-0 series win over Bangladesh, especially after batting aggressively in the rain-hit Kanpur Test to register a remarkable triumph.
“I don't see pitches being like what they were against Bangladesh. It won't be seaming as much as it was in Chennai and Kanpur, but looking at this squad, I don't think India needs those kinds of pitches or even turners. This Indian team is good enough to beat any side in the world at this point.”
