ONL Bureau : The legendary Kapil Dev on Friday backed India to win the Asia Cup but stressed on collective efforts taking precedence over individual brilliance ahead of the high-voltage clash against Pakistan in Dubai.
The traditional rivals will face off on Sunday in what will be the first match between the two sides since the escalation of the border conflict in May.
"I am backing the Indian team. India will play as a team and return home (with the trophy). This is my wish and I know that the kind of cricket they are playing they will return home victorious," said Kapil, when asked on the sidelines of a golf event on who he felt would provide the 'X-factor' for India in the blockbuster outing.
