There is an exciting group of players who will be gracing the international scene once again as cricket fans prepare for the eagerly awaited 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup. These five outstanding individuals showed their talent and abilities in the 2011 World Cup, as they are no strangers to the World Cup environment.
As they prepare to lead their respective nations to victory in the coming World Cup, Martin Guptill, Steve Smith, Tim Southee, Tamim Iqbal, and Virat Kohli will make their triumphant comebacks to the cricketing world.
Five Players Who played in World Cup 2011 and will Play in 2023 World Cup:
1. Virat Kohli: The Modern Master
In the 21st century, it is impossible to talk about cricket without bringing up Virat Kohli. The former Indian captain has always exhibited consistency, grace, and persistence. When the 2011 World Cup started, Kohli, a young and talented batter, was crucial in leading India to the final match.
He displayed his composure and toughness over a total of 9 matches, scoring 282 runs overall with an 82.21 strike rate. The whole cricketing community praised him for his aggressive batting style and ability to lead the innings.
Now that he is an experienced veteran, Kohli will be a difficult opponent at the 2023 World Cup. The Run Machine is ready to take the lead from the front due to his exceptional fitness and sheer hunger for runs. While his bat will be expected to do the majority of the talking, his captaincy will be crucial in leading India’s young stars.
