The men in blue have an all-star team capable of destroying any opponent with ease. Virat Kohli, the Indian skipper is arguably the best batsman in World Cricket at the moment and is a reason why team India is considered a batting powerhouse.

The men in blue also possess the double-century expert, Rohit Sharma - India’s hitman who has bashed ballers all over the world. Team India has been a rampant force and dispatched each every opponent with ease and are surely one of the top contenders for cricket biggest prize, the ICC World Cup to be held in England.

One major reason for India to be optimistic is their genuinely impressive record in ICC tournaments held in England. The men in blue famously won the Champions Trophy in 2013 when Dhoni's men prevailed in a thrilling final against the hosts, England.

The list doesn't stop there as the greatest moment in Team India's cricketing history took place in England when Kapil Dev led a formidable Indian side to a historic triumph as India won the 1983 World Cup.

India has won the prestigious tournament twice before and will be vying to bring home the trophy for the third time.
