Cricket World Cup Predictions

Cricket World Cup Winner – India

It’s hard to look past India. They are always well-suited to the home conditions, and they have a quality team top to bottom.

The spin bowlers excel on the slower pitchers, so the likes of Mohammed Siraj and Kuldeep Yadav should have a field day.

They also have Jasprit Bumrah steaming in with his unique action, so the bowling unit for India is red-hot.

The batting lineup is also impressive, with leader Virat Kolhi, Shubman Gill, and Rohit Sharma. We expect them to score the bulk of India’s runs, and they could set up some massive totals throughout group play.

Punters get $2.88 for India to win, which is a fair price considering their home advantage.

Bet: India @ $2.88

Cricket World Cup Value Bet – Australia

It’s never wise to rule out Australia. They might not be at their very best, but that is often good enough to take them close.

The core group is still there, with the likes of David Warner, Steve Smith, and Mitchell Marsh. There isn’t as much young talent as there has been in previous years, but experience should count for plenty.

Explosiveness comes with Glenn Maxwell, who can change the game at the blink of an eye. He is a player every team would love to have, so that makes Australia a winning threat.

Getting $5 for the Aussies is a good price, and we expect those odds to firm over the first couple of weeks of the tournament.

Bet: Australia @ $5

Cricket World Cup Long Shot – New Zealand

Just like it’s not wise to rule out Australia, it’s equally not smart to rule out New Zealand.

They have been unlucky in recent years to not win a World Cup, whether it be at T20 or 50-Over formats.

Despite not playing their best form, the Black Caps are always a winning threat. They have a quality team, including some younger talent, and that could be important towards the latter stages of the tournament.

Devon Conway has been in excellent form this year, and Kane Williamson is one of the best batsmen in the world.

Rule out the Kiwis at your peril, and the $10 is too good to pass up.

Bet: New Zealand @ $10

Cricket World Cup Top Run Scorer – Shubman Gill

Gill is nearing 2000 international runs for India, and we think he’s the clear top pick to lead the tournament.

The 24-year-old has a 66.1 average, and with a high score of 208, he’s tough to ignore at the current odds.

Bookmakers have Gill on the second line of betting at $8.50 behind Kohli, but we think the Indian legend will pass on the torch to Gill.

Bet: Shubman Gill @ $8.50

Cricket World Cup Top Wicket Taker – Jasprit Bumrah

Despite India favouring spin bowlers, we’re backing Bumrah to tear through the opposition.

It also helps that India should progress through to at least the semifinals, so that gives Bumrah a chance to rack up the numbers.

He’s one of the more unique bowlers at the 2023 Cricket World Cup, and his action will attract attention.

Getting $10.50 is a great price, so we’re happy to put him on top.

Our saver bet is favourite Kuldeep Yadav, who has been taking wickets for fun over the last few years.

Bet: Jasprit Bumrah @ $10.50
