ICC World Cup 2019: Belief Separates Winners from Losers - Kapil Dev

India’s former skipper Kapil Dev has the belief that Virat Kohli‘s team can go on to win the ICC World Cup 2019. Dev stated that the belief separates winners from the losers. The Indian team is high on confidence and they can go all the way in the coveted tournament. Meanwhile, Kapil Dev also heaped praise on skipper Virat Kohli and former skipper MS Dhoni.

Both the talisman batsman have done a fine job for the India National Cricket Team and they would like to carry the same form. Virat Kohli is one of the most consistent batsmen in the game. Kohli has batted with aplomb and he has scored his runs all around the world. On the other hand, MS Dhoni has all the experience under his belt and the linchpin batsman is back in fine form.

“Belief is the most important thing that separates winners from others. Self-belief, having the faith that you can win, is what differentiates a team that can actually win the Cup and having the perfect team but losing the Cup,” Dev said on the sidelines of a promotional event here.

“Whether it will happen or not, whether we will win or not is something I cannot say. But it is very important to have trust and faith in your team. I have full faith in my team, the Indian team. Results will come later,” he added.

Meanwhile, Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni share a great bond with each other. In fact, we have seen that Kohli fields in the deep in the death overs and Dhoni then takes over the baton of setting up the field.

“This is not like a relationship between husband and wife that you need chemistry or biology. Both of them are very different but both are excellent.

“All of them have to understand that they are not playing for themselves but for country. And when you are playing for the country, no other thought should ever come into your mind,” he quipped.

India has covered most of the bases ahead of the World Cup. Virat Kohli’s team is considered one of the biggest contenders of the ODI showpiece as they have a potent side. India will begin their World Cup campaign against South Africa at Southampton on 5th June.
