Glenn McGrath warns Team India: Former Australia fast bowler Glenn McGrath has made a bold prediction ahead of the T20 World Cup semi-final, saying that India and South Africa could face each other in the final. However, he warned that despite England’s up-and-down performances so far in the tournament, India will have to be alert against them. McGrath described England as being able to change the picture of matches on their day. “England are a dangerous team. If they play really well on the day, they can do anything.
It is important to be vigilant from England
However, they were also lucky. Nepal should have beaten them. The match against Italy was a close one. So they have found ways to win. Maybe that will give them confidence that they are on top for the semi-finals,” he said. If India maintain their current form, they will advance. McGrath said, “If India play the way they are playing in this tournament and England play the same way, then India will go ahead. I will pick two teams for the final: South Africa and India.”

Also praised South Africa’s recent approach to T20 cricket. “Some time ago, they said that they are focusing on T20 cricket going forward. They have good batsmen and the bowling attack is very good.”
Speaking about South Africa’s semi-final match against New Zealand, McGrane pointed to an interesting trend. “There’s something different about New Zealand when they play South Africa. South Africa always wins easily, I don’t know why.” Speaking about India’s bowling unit, McGrath highlighted its importance in the knockout stages, praising Jasprit Bumrah in particular. “First of all, it will be about deciding what to do after winning the toss. India have good bowling,” he said.
Arshdeep Singh is doing well and Bumrah is quality. Arshdeep is perhaps the best of India’s bowlers, but Bumrah is a big game player. Sometimes, during big matches, these players raise their game. In a normal match, I’m not saying there’s no focus, but they like those big moments, big games. But when it comes to big matches, I have complete faith in Bumrah. I’ve always been a big fan of his.”
