New Delhi. The caravan of T20 World Cup 2026, to be jointly hosted by India and Sri Lanka, is moving towards the Super-8. India, Zimbabwe, West Indies and South Africa remained undefeated and topped their respective groups and made it to the next round. Apart from these, the other four teams of Super-8 are New Zealand, England, Sri Lanka and Pakistan. As soon as the Super-8 teams are finalized, predictions have started regarding the top-4. Many former cricketers are giving their opinions about the teams contending to reach the semi-finals of the tournament. Former England cricketer Monty Panesar has also made predictions about the top-4 teams. However, South Africa and New Zealand are not included in the top-4 teams he has selected.

This former spinner has placed both the hosts among the four teams reaching the semi-finals. Without any delay, Panesar first took the name of India and said that Team India will reach the semi-finals. However, he expressed concern that India faces a big challenge in playing spin. Panesar said that Indian batsmen are currently seen struggling against the spinners, which can create problems for the defending champions in the upcoming tournament. Panesar took the next name of England. Regarding England, Panesar believes that they have a strong power house, which will play an important role in making the team a place in the top-4.

Panesar chose the third team Sri Lanka. He said that Sri Lanka is the host and it has shown a brilliant game at the right time. Especially his tremendous run chase against Australia, due to which the team is fully prepared to go to the semi-finals. According to him the fourth team is Zimbabwe. Along with this, Panesar said that now everyone will say how about Zimbabwe? Giving the main reason behind this, this former cricketer said that the high arm bowlers he has are the X factor. Because of being tall, those bowlers are getting more bounce. Apart from this, the way they defeated Australia will give confidence to the team.
