Asked if his boys are the favorites for the T20 World Cup, skipper Virat Kohli said no and called England favorites instead.
"I don't think [we are the favorites]. I think it is England who will be the team to beat. They are the No. 1 side in the world. The prime focus will be on them at this (T20) World Cup. All the other teams will be wary of the strengths that they bring to the park. It is England who is the favorite. That will not change regardless of how they (England players) think," Kohli told the media.
