Lara, 41, said MS Dhoni’s men have been in top form in both Tests and One-Day Internationals leading up the showpiece event, which will be hosted by India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
“With the World Cup in Asia, India are definitely the favourites,” the former West Indies captain told reporters after conducting a coaching clinic for youngsters at the Firoz Shah Kotla stadium in New Delhi.
“India have been on the top of their game, they will be a very tough team to beat. They have a well-balanced team that can compete with anyone in the world, but playing before home crowds will not be easy.”
