Moreover, he added that the hosts are playing at an “autopilot” mode. He said if they get a good start, then their middle order carries the innings forward.
The hosts would easily win the trophy unless Australia bowlers manage to restrict the opposition.
Aamir Sohail said Australia is not looking like a World Cup-winning team as they are struggling to perform well in middle overs and are facing problems in playing spin bowling.
