According to Hussain, India, hosts England, Pakistan and Australia will be the ones to reach the semi-finals of upcoming ODI World Cup.

Speaking on the ICC Cricket World Cup Preview show on Sky Sports, Hussain said: “You look at India, they travel so well. They’re in the mix.

There’s pressure on England at home but they are a great side. And I think New Zealand and Pakistan can both surprise people. I’m going with that four,” the former England skipper added.


The ICC World Cup 2019 will be played in a different format than the last few editions of the tournament. There are no groups and all 10 teams – England, Australia, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, West Indies, Afghanistan and South Africa – will face each other in first round with the top four teams qualifying for the semi-finals.

Hosts England will take on South Africa in the tournament opener on May 30. India start their campaign on June 5 against South Africa.

The warm-up games for World Cup 2019 will begin from May 24 with Pakistan facing Afghanistan. Each team will play 2 warm-up games before the tournament.
