Both the teams have recorded a string of victories over the weekend with Australia clinching a high-scoring five-run win against New Zealand on Saturday, while India overcame a sluggish start to triumph over England by a margin of 100 runs the following day.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cI honestly believe it will be an Australia v India final. India is the number one (favourite) for me (and) it\u2019s been exciting to watch,\" Lyon said on SEN 1170 Breakfast.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cThat being said, I think South Africa are still a dangerous team with a powerful batting lineup. You just have to look at their number three in Rassie van der Dussen, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen and then David Miller,\" he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Lyon further said that India also have pressure as the entire nation's expectations are towards them to win the coveted trophy. \"India also has the pressure of the whole nation who are expecting them to win and their fans are so passionate. In finals, Australia has the runs on the board so hopefully they can go all the way,\" he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
So far, the home side India are sitting on top with six wins in as may as games, South Africa are second with a 5 win and loss while New Zealand and Australia are both have four wins and two loss to their names with Kiwis sitting above the Aussies on net run rate.<\/p>\r\n\r\n", "image": "https:\/\/img.cricketnmore.com\/uploads\/2023\/10\/mens-odi-wc-i-believe-it-will-be-australia-vs-india-nathan-lyon-shares-his-prediction-for-final.jpg", "alt_img": "Men's ODI WC: 'I believe it will be Australia vs India', Nathan Lyon shares his prediction for fina", "alt_title": "Men\u2019s ODI WC: Resurgent India face Australia challenge in quest to start campaign on a high (preview", "image1": null, "video": null, "seo_title": "Men's ODI WC: 'I Believe It Will Be Australia Vs India', Nathan Lyon Shares His Prediction For Final On Cricketnmore", "seo_desc": "Men's ODI WC: 'I Believe It Will Be Australia Vs India', Nathan Lyon Shares His Prediction For Final, Cricket World Cup: Australian cricketer Nathan Lyon is adamant that the old rivals five-time champions Australia and Two-time winner and.", "seo_keywords": "Nathan Lyon, New Delhi, ICC Men, Cricket World Cup, New Zealand, South Africa, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, David Miller", "tag": "", "tagging": "Nathan Lyon, New Delhi, ICC Men, Cricket World Cup, New Zealand, South Africa, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, David Miller", "status": "1", "img_rpt": "0", "google": "1", "standout": "0", "edapps": "0", "pulse": "0", "no_index": "0", "feed": "0", "fixture": null, "slug": "mens-odi-wc-i-believe-it-will-be-australia-vs-india-nathan-lyon-shares-his-prediction-for-final", "user_id": "0", "read_count": "0", "ians_date": null, "ians_time": null, "server_time": null, "trash": "0", "view_count": "1298", "page_break": "0", "instant_articles": "1", "auto_link": "1", "created": "2023-10-30 11:50:03", "updated": "2023-10-30 11:50:03", "img_from": "Image Source: IANS", "img_source": null, "schedule_publish": null, "news_keywords": "Nathan Lyon, New Delhi, ICC Men, Cricket World Cup, New Zealand, South Africa, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, David Miller", "livescore_text": null, "livescore_link": null, "btn_text": null, "resend_feed": "1", "google_feed": "1", "read_more": "0", "posted_by": "23", "jio_date": "2023-10-30 11:50:03", "scheduled": "0", "news_now": "1", "breaking_news": "1", "google_date": null, "featured": "0", "pred_match_id": null, "article_content_type": null, "link": "https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-news\/mens-odi-wc-i-believe-it-will-be-australia-vs-india-nathan-lyon-shares-his-prediction-for-final-131387" }
