On a News channel on Tuesday night Moin said "The present team is very capable of recording the first win over India in a World Cup because there is talent, there is depth and variety and Sarfaraz Ahmed has now gelled the squad well,". Moin, who featured in many famous matches against India and was a member of the 1992 and 1999 World Cup squads, said that this time he is confident of a Pakistan win.
He said as "I say this because our boys defeated them (India) in the Champions Trophy two years back and I just feel that in English conditions in June we have better bowlers,". He further added that "This should be a very interesting World Cup and I am backing Pakistan to beat India. Our boys are in good spirits and it is good they will go into the competition after having played ODI matches against South Africa, Australia and England,".
