India
The first team that should reach the semi final is the home team India because India at home is one of the most formidable teams in cricket. And this World Cup will be entirely played in India and the team will be full of the best players like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Ravindra Jadeja, Hardik Pandya etc and the fans will fill all the stadiums in which the Indian team will play in and they will get all the motivation and they should reach the semi final and from there the real tournament for the Indian team will start because in the knockouts the Indian team tends to not do well. 9 Matches in 9 cities should also give India to have different kinds of pitches and they will be able to beat their opponents.
England
The best white ball team in the world along with Australia. England should also reach the semi final of the World Cup later this year and the pitches there will suit them a lot and they will enjoy batting in their attacking style a lot and England will look to make over 400 in a couple of matches and over 300 on a regular basis. They have players like Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, Jos Buttler, Moeen Ali, Mark Wood etc. If England does not reach the semi final then it would be the biggest shocker. They are playing their important matches in Ahmedabad, Bangalore and Kolkata all of which are batting paradises and they should be delighted.
