Sourav Ganguly says “There is a huge possibility of 13-0” in T20 World Cup. Ganguly believes there’s a “huge possibility” of India extending their World Cup hot streak over Pakistan to 13-0. The arch-rivals will meet in Dubai for the high-octane and start at 7:30 PM IST. Ganguly also said the host of match-winners in the Indian team. It makes them favorites. However, he remarked that Pakistan has “one or two players” who can give India. Also, a hard time so winning the “mental battle” will also be important for both teams.
“Yes, there is a huge possibility of 13-0 happening and India extending their unbeaten streak against Pakistan in this World Cup. All the players in this Indian team are genuine match-winners and fingers crossed, this team can finally end our 10 years wait of winning a world cup. Pakistan is also a good team. If one or two players click, then anything can happen. To win the mental battle is important. I feel it will be a great match!,” Sourav Ganguly said.

Lastly, Sourav Ganguly has defended the Indian team. They haven’t won an ICC event since 2013. He says they won’t “win every time”. Ganguly was argued that India has reached knockouts in every recent tournament. Team India is strong enough to consistently create chances to play in the finals.
“It’s not like that India will win every time. It is only natural that there will be gaps between World Cup wins. India won the World Cup in 2011, as well as in 2007. We played the final in 2003 and 2014. Even in 2017, we played Champions Trophy final but lost to Pakistan. Indian cricket is so strong that we will keep getting chances to play the final. Even this year we are hopeful. India is a big contender, but fingers crossed,” Ganguly added.
