Legendary Sri Lankan cricketer Murali Dharan says that no single team can be declared a favorite in the T20 World Cup while the role of spinners will be very important in the mega event.
In a column on the ICC website, Murali Dharan wrote that in the conditions of UAE and Oman in the T20 World Cup, neither team can be called a favorite, any team can win this World Cup.
He said that the first 6 overs of the innings will be important in World Cup matches, 70 to 80 percent of the matches will be decided in the first overs of the innings.
The Sri Lankan legend added that if a good start is not found, it will be very difficult for the teams to back down later, so it is important to start in this format.
The former spinner expressed happiness over the fact that the role of spinners has also become important in this format of batsmen.
Advising the bowlers, he said that it was important for the bowlers to test the minds of the batsmen.
The former legend said that the role of spinners would be very important in the conditions of the UAE as the batsmen have faced a lot of difficulties in the recent matches here.
