India favourites to win T20 World Cup: Mike Atherton, Michael Vaughan

Depth in the team and playing in home conditions make India the favourites to win this year’s T20 World Cup, said former England skipper Mike Atherton. Even without the services of all-rounder Jadeja and pacers Bumrah and Shami, India beat world no. 1 side in the 5-match T20I series 3-2 on Saturday. “This team in Indian conditions & they are favourites to win the T20 World Cup,” said Michael Vaughan.
