The ‘Men in Blue’, led by Kohli and mentored by Dhoni, has had its share of good results and six wins in nine games would ensure a smooth passage into the semi-finals.

After much debate and discussion around who would bat at number four- KL Rahul solved the riddle by scoring a brilliant ton against Bangladesh in the warm-up game. The young star hitter was seen hitting the ball hard during the practice session.
There's no doubt that the Proteas are badly hit by poor form and injuries but it may just take one fiery spell from Kagiso Rabada to straighten things up. A bit of help from the weather conditions with his scorching pace and ability to move the ball, Rabada could just unsettle the opening pair of Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan, who haven't had the best of times during the past few months.
