Lucknow: The Indian cricket team has not been able to win any ICC trophy for the last 11 years. They last captured the Champions Trophy in the year 2013.

In such a situation, former great South African batsman AB de Villiers has given an advice to Team India, so that they can end this ICC trophy drought. Let us tell you that the Indian team has performed well in this World Cup so far and was at the top in the group stage.

The Men in Blue have qualified for the Super-8 in the T20 World Cup. They won three matches, while their match against Canada was cancelled. In such a situation, they would like to maintain this momentum in the Super-8 as well and win the title. The Indian team has come close to winning the title for the last few years, in which they have played the finals and semi-finals many times but have not been able to win the trophy. In such a situation, while talking on his YouTube channel, de Villiers has made a big statement.
He said, “The Indian team should ensure that they play aggressive cricket. In the last World Cup, I think they made this mistake and started trying to play differently. India is a very quality team and they can take some risk to gain momentum in the beginning because once you get the momentum, you never look back.”
The former African player also reacted to the batting order of legendary batsman Virat Kohli and said, “I always say that Virat Kohli should bat at number three. Now he will play on better wickets and I think that especially on such a pitch, he should come to bat at number three as well. He can play aggressively and can also handle pressure better when needed. Virat is a great player in the middle overs and I do not see any reason to make him open.”
