Now the commentary panel of the inaugural WTC Final has revealed its predictions, with the ICC posting a clip of the same on Friday.

The star-studded commentary panel was evenly split when asked to share their predictions for the India vs New Zealand clash.

Craig McMillan and Simon Doull didn’t shy away from backing their home side, with the duo backing New Zealand to end their trophy drought in ICC competitions.

Sunil Gavaskar followed the trend and backed his home side, explaining how India’s ‘impact players’ could be the difference on the big stage.

Ian Bishop predicts a draw between India and New Zealand

Kumar Sangakkara gave a characteristically diplomatic answer, suggesting the Black Caps are slightly ahead on current form.

But it was Ian Bishop who may have taken the cake with his prediction, as the former cricketer was the only one to predict a draw in the WTC final.

With the start of the India-New Zealand clash delayed due to rain and the forecast for the rest of the game looking bleak, Ian Bishop may be the only one to get his prediction right.
