With two World Cups lined up in the next two years, India batting legend Sunil Gavaskar has pointed out that the lack of all-rounders in the current Indian team is hampering India's chances to win a coveted world title.
Gavaskar in his column for Mid-Day wrote that the Indian teams that won the World Cups were full of all-rounders which is key in limited-overs cricket.
The little master further wrote that the 2007 and 2011 teams had batsmen who could bowl and bowlers who were no bunnies with the bat.
