Australian right-arm fast-medium bowler Josh Hazlewood has claimed that India is a very dangerous side, insisting that it is just a matter of time until their batting order clicks.
Hazlewood played down India's 106-run drubbing in a World Cup warm-up against co-hosts Australia on Sunday. Australia dominated India in batting, bowling and fielding in the Adelaide match to bolster their status as favourites to win the global showpiece, which starts on Saturday.
India have been struggling to find their form Down Under, going winless from their three matches in the tri-series against England and Australia in recent weeks, The Dawn reported.
But, Hazlewood claimed that it's just a matter of time until India's batting order clicks. He said that the defending champions have got some outstanding players and they have all got great records.
Hazlewood believes that it's just a matter of time before India gets going, adding that they're a very dangerous side.
