Will India win T20 world cup 2022, T20 world cup match prediction


In the T20 World Cup cricket, India lost two matches by huge margins, yet they weren’t out of the race in the semi-finals. However, the chances of India in T20 World Cup is dependent on certain factors, like how the other teams would perform, mainly Afghanistan and New Zealand, to perform in their remaining T20 matches they would play. There are several betters who bet on T20 World Cup match predictions to check if the total matches and their outcomes predicted comes true. 


Let us check the highlights of 2022 T20 World Cup. India had lost to New Zealand by almost 8 wickets, and then 10-days wicket loss to the semi-finals in Pakistan. Although there were rave reviews about team India and its performance, it would take a lot to work on the team’s performance and take it to the top.  


Although team India has been predicted as the favorites at the pre-tournament, India has shocked many with their impeccable performance in T20. India’s players not only had a great body language but also a good understanding of the team positioning in 2020, which made them the hot favorites in T20 world Cup 2022. Virat Kohli is one of the strongest contenders of the tournament and how he designs the entire team is what would be seen in the game. 


Unlike T20 2022, where the match got up to a horror start, the team lost to their arch-rivals Pakistan by 10 wickets. This was actually the first win of Pakistan over India in a World Cup and they got it in great style as they were chasing a total of 152 run target and they hadn’t lost a wicket with merely 13 balls to spare. 



They played rather badly in the last T20 World Cup 2021 and were totally out of shape. However, this World Cup, the team has geared up to provide the best of support. The team had managed to keep a lot of high hopes of going to the semi-finals after they were defeated by 66 runs on November 3 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium (Abu Dhabi). It was not just a win, India required a better margin so that they could redress their complete run rate. 


The favorites at pre-tournament were India, however they got off to a poor start in the Super 12 stage in the ongoing showpiece matches and they had lost their first of the two matches against their rivals New Zealand and Pakistan by almost 8 wickets with the former and 10 wickets with the latter. 


Group 2 leaders - Pakistan have already booked the semi final spot also with three strong contenders - New Zealand, India and Afghanistan fighting for a position in the semi finals. 


Can the Indian team reach the semi-finals? Check the following permutations: 


In case we talk about India's chances, they would have to win the two remaining two matches having a huge margin as their qualifications in the Group 2 and is most likely to come down the net run rate (NRR). 


When India won against Afghanistan, India had a positive net run rate of 0.073. For the team to qualify, New Zealand would need to drop points in one of the two matches that remained. However, there was a narrow win of 16-run against the Scotland states. 


The current statistics for New Zealand is at +0.816, Afghanistan had finished at a run rate +1.481 and India was at a run rate of +0.073. 

The recent scenario says that in case India does end up winning the rest of the two games and New Zealand had beat Namibia, however they lost to Afghanistan, there would be one match tie up at almost 6 points. Finally the net run rate would decide which team would go through. 

So, looking by the trend and the history the team was going through in their previous matches, there remains much room for contemplation if the team would win at all or it would be difficult for the team to even reach the semi-finals. 

To Conclude: 

There are a total of 16 teams playing in the T20 World Cup 2022. All the teams are geared up to play their best. There are a lot of contemplations regarding - will India win T20 World cup 2022? The betters are preparing their best to come up with the predictions that will give them maximum returns. While there are at least 5 teams that are top contestants for the match winners, or atleast reaching to the finals, it is the team preparation and team strategy that would decide which team would do best. With consistent practice for the last two years and a team with a good batting and bowling order, it would be difficult to beat India for most of the teams. Yet, what would be team India’s output, whether it would be able to reach the semi finals this World Cup T20 2022 is a difficult guess.
