Seasoned Australia batter Steve Smith says a "terrific" Indian team is packed with some serious match winners going into the T20 World Cup, alluding that Virat Kohli's side will be one of the favourites to lift the title.
India thumped Australia by eight wickets in a warm-up game with Rohit Sharma (60), K L Rahul (39) and Suryakumar Yadav (38) all getting runs.
Kohli did not lead the side but came out to bowl as India are still figuring out their sixth bowling option. "They're a terrific side, they have got all bases covered and some serious match-winners," Smith was quoted as saying by Sydney Morning Herald. "They've been playing in these conditions with the IPL, so they'll be used to that," he added.
