Sehwag has already picked hosts India as favourites to win the coveted title for the second time. "Apart from India I would pick New Zealand in their group. The teams to watch out from other group will be South Africa and West Indies. India remain favourites to repeat the feat of 2007. They are playing good cricket at the moment and the combinations are working well," Sehwag told PTI on the sidelines of the Royal Stag Perfect Strokes event.
