Nine’s commentary team is hosted by Roz Kelly, with expert comments from former Australian captain Mark Taylor.
Mark Taylor said:
“The race to win the 2023 World Cup is wide open, with so many countries genuinely in the running.
“Australia are right in the mix to win their sixth World Cup title and will improve with the inclusion of Cummins, Starc, Smith and Maxwell from recent lead-up matches.
“India and Pakistan will be hard to beat in conditions that suit their play, but remember Australia won their first World Cup in India in 1987. The key for us will be settling on the final eleven and finding some consistency in the middle-order batting.
“I also feel that the spin bowling of Zampa and Agar could be pivotal to Australia’s chances.”
