That’s cool. I am waiting to see Yuvraj Singh Make a comeback after a long fight with Cancer. I am expecting him to bring his old charm back and help India win another T20 World Cup. Want to see him hit six sixers in a single over again.

India's Gonna Win This One Too..!!

With Ireland in tournament, I am hoping that that they recreate the magical moment they created in ICC World Cup 2011. Still can’t forget their match against England where they won so efficiently. The fastest World Cup century by Kevin O’Brien is still unforgettable. To accompany him on field, there came Mooney and Derek O’Brien. Also I’d like to watch Afghanistan play cricket, it’s the first time I will be seeing them play cricket in such a major tournament.
