Viv Richards: The next mega event of international cricket will be played in June in the form of ICC T20 World Cup 2024. 20 teams will participate in this multi-nation tournament to be hosted by the United States and West Indies. This means that it will be very difficult to win the title this time.

Meanwhile, the great West Indies batsman Sir Viv Richards has named the best batsman in the world. The surprising thing is that Richards did not take the name of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma or the Australian and English batsmen. Let us know who according to the former West Indies player is the most talented batsman of the present time?

Sir Viv Richards took the name of this player

Great West Indies batsman Sir Viv Richards, while talking to Pakistani news channel Geo News, described Babar Azam as the best batsman of the present time. He says that Babar has the ability to perform brilliantly without batting aggressively. Richards said,

“Babar Azam is in a class by himself. I think he doesn't bat with as much aggression as other top players in the world, but he still gets the job done. I think Babar is one of the best batsmen not only for Pakistan but in world cricket.”

“Babar has his own style and every batsman around the world has his own style, but there are some people you enjoy watching. Babar is definitely one of them.”

According to Viv Richards this team will win the title

Sir Viv Richards has further made a big prediction regarding the T20 World Cup 2024 and said that co-host West Indies has the potential to win the title. They said,

“I love Pakistan, but I think West Indies have such a good team that they can win the title this time. It should be kept in mind that West Indies are also full of talent and especially in the T20 format, they can beat any team. We are just hoping that the players stay in form and perform at their best and as long as they do that, I am confident that we can win the T20 World Cup on home soil.”

This is India's program

The ICC T20 World Cup 2024 is going to start from June 2. But India has to play its first match against Ireland on June 5. After this they will face arch-rival Pakistan on June 9. At the same time, on June 12, the blue jersey team will face host USS and the last match of the group stage will be against Canada on June 15.
