Team India T20 World Cup Celebration Live Updates: Vaughan predicts big things from the Indian team
After the Indian cricket team's win at the T20 World Cup, former England captain Michael Vaughan has predicted them to win many more titles.
'My worry --- actually it's a concern --- is for the rest of the world now that India have won this trophy which has been hard for them to win. India have such a powerful squad. If you look at the Champions Trophy in Pakistan which will be held in similar conditions. The T20 World cup in 2026 will be held in Sri Lanka and India, we know what's going to go on. They're very powerful. They've now won a World Test Championship final yet despite being in the last two. I'm sure they will make the next final as well. This group of Indian players, I think, they could go on a bit of a roll. They could go on a real roll. If you look at Australia, they have a powerful team. They;re going to be continue to be powerful. England are going to go through a bit of a transitional period. New Zealand are going to go through a transition. Don't really need to mention Bangladesh. There are not many teams that I can look at that can go close to this Indian team.
'India might have a --- and they should with the talent that they have --- they could have a few years of dominance, this Indian team,' said vaughan on the Club Prairie Fire podcast.
