India: Can they end their 28-year-long wait to win their second World Cup? They certainly are the favourites on home soil. From a destructive batting line-up and swing bowlers to a versatile spin attack, they have all the ingredients that can make them the World Champions. But playing in front of home crowds will certainly put some pressure on them.
Key men: It has to be batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar. But Virender Sehwag can't be left out as well.
