While talking about the Men in Blue’s strengths and weaknesses, former Australia skipper Aaron Finch pointed out how crucial are Jasprit Bumrah and his wicket-taking abilities for Team India in the upcoming World Cup.

“I think getting Jasprit Bumrah back is vital for India. He is the best in the world when he is up and running. So, if he is not available, that will probably lead to a hole in the innings in terms of wicket-taking ability because he is so dangerous,” Finch told TimesofIndia.

Aaron Finch also appreciated India’s formidable batting line-up and said “But if the Indian opening combination, gets a good platform, then the rest of the team can be aggressive. There is power in the middle order with Hardik and Sky being there. There are not many weaknesses in the Indian team. They have got great spin options and very good fast bowlers. What will come down to in the World Cup will be execution on a particular day – a spell from a particular bowler or an innings from a batsman.”

Team India is set to face Australia in the third and final ODI of the three-match series. The series is currently being leveled at 1-1 and the decider would be played at the Chepauk Stadium in Chennai on Wednesday
