Future Predictions Cricket 2023 & 2024

It is now clear T20 World cup cricket win of 2022 for England and the 2021 T20 World Cup win from Australia confirms certain trends and patterns and what you need to win in T20 World Cup.

Focus on Data: Multiple All Rounders , Left Arm Pacers , Left Handed Batsmen Leg Spinners and chasing are keys to winning in T20s right now so build a team which has them and for an interesting insight into how analytics plays in cricket read Hitting Against the Spin: How Cricket Really Works Book by Ben Jones and Nathan Leamon who were England ‘s Cricket Analyst who helped England become the King of white ball cricket.

Interestingly Sam Curran - left Arm bowler , Ben Stokes - left Arm all Rounder , Adil Rashid - Leg Spinner, David Malan- Left Handed batter at 3 and Moen Ali - Left Arm Spinner were the Keys to England winning this world cup along with an aggresive intent openers in Joss Buttler and Alex Hales.

In 2021 T 20 World Cup Australia also had an intesresting mix multiple allrounders , Left handed David Warner Firing along with left handed Matthew Wade and Adam Zampa ‘s Leg Spin and Ashton Agar’s Left Arm Spin with Mitchell Starc’s Left Arm pace.

For Reasoning why Left Handers have an advantage you need to read the book above.

Most of teams have data analysts but they don’t trust them as much as english do

For India they should Make Hardik Pandya as captain for T20 and pair him with VVS Laxman as coach recreating the 1983 world Cup pair of allrounder Kapil Dev and P R Man Singh and the process has started on New Zealand Tour

India Have Left Arm pacer and Left Arm Spinner all they need to add is Left handed batsmen at top and use a leg spinner get at least couple more allrounders and have aggressive openers at the top and you have a potentially winning team.

I assume seeing the results this should happen for 2024 T20 world cup.

Freelance Cricketers 

From the Likes of Tim David to the West Indies where Chris Gayle started the concept the rise of freelance crikceters and the T20 leagues proliferation will continue to rise and rise. There are two new leagues like CSA 20 and UAE T20 which have started and now its possible to make a living by just being on this circuit There are people like Will Smead who retired from first class cricket at the age of 21 for these leagues. India will also break and will start allowing its youngsters to play in these leagues and that might well be the end of first class cricket which is set to be another future coming true unless all administrators unite and priortize first class cricket over T20 that seems like a difficult thing to expect from cricket bureaucracy.
