SOUTHAMPTON, England: India are banking on their experience in their World Cup opener against South Africa and cannot take the opposition's depleted bowling attack lightly, captain Virat Kohli said on Tuesday, insisting the Proteas can call upon quality replacements.

"So we never take anyone lightly, and whether a few key players get injured or not, if a youngster is stepping in and he has the right mindset, he can really perform on the day ... we need to maintain respect for that and focus on our strength and what we can do as a side." "From that point of view, we would say that we have a lot of positives that we can take out of starting after everyone else."India have won the World Cup in 1983 and 2011, while South Africa has never won the 50-over edition, but Kohli said this year's tournament presents a different challenge.
