CWC 2019: 4 Reasons why this World Cup will be the most high-scoring to date

Some great batting line-ups ready to take the charge

One of the key factors for any team posting a big total is a good batting line-up, and this World Cup will have no dearth of it. Even though AB de Villiers has retired, there are still some batting line-ups with a mix of some truly big hitters and some elegant stroke-makers ready to unleash their attack on the bowlers.

Some of the best batsmen across ODI cricket history are playing this tournament, including Fab 4

To name a few, India have one of the world’s best top three in Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan and Virat Kohli, along with a firing Hardik Pandya and an in-form legend MS Dhoni. Australia have David Warner and Steve Smith back along with Usman Khwaja, Glenn Maxwell and Shaun Marsh. West Indies have Chris Gayle, Evin Lewis, Shimron Hetmyer and Andre Russell. Above all are England, with a top 6, any of who can score a 50-ball 100 at any point of the match without breaking any sweat. So needless to say, this tournament is going to see some real big hitting.
