In a bold statement, former England captain Eoin Morgan says India is the strongest team in the upcoming T20 World Cup, even with their injuries.
Morgan praised India’s depth and talent, saying,
“Their strength and depth is absolutely incredible.”
India’s squad includes new talents like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Yuzvendra Chahal, and Sanju Samson. Morgan pointed out that even with key players like Shubman Gill and K.L. Rahul missing, India is still a powerful team.
He said, “They are favorites for me. The quality they have on paper, if they produce it, I think they can beat anybody quite well in the tournament.”

Fans on Twitter had mixed reactions to Morgan’s statement. One fan tweeted, “Morgan is right! India has an incredible squad depth,” while another said, “Injuries might affect their performance more than expected.”
Morgan believes India’s recent losses, like the ODI World Cup at home, will make them more determined. “I think they can win because they have got to a stage now where Adelaide would hurt,” he added.
Michael Atherton also commented on India’s T20 success. “Everyone talks about the IPL and how it has improved India’s T20 cricket. The irony is that the only time they have won is pre-IPL,” he said.
Despite past setbacks, Morgan is hopeful about India’s chances. He thinks India’s mix of experienced players and new talents gives them a unique edge.
As the T20 World Cup gets closer, everyone will watch how India handles their injuries and performs on the big stage.
