Honestly the best thing Naqvi did for Pakistan was ensure Pakistan won’t have to travel to India possibly ever again,

Sri Lanka is so smooth sailing to deal with!

They are actually unconfirmed

ICC missed a trick not putting South Africa and Netherlands in the same group. The Dutch beat them in their last two ICC tournament meetings.
Maybe some Saffers respect the country of their ancestors too much

I think South Africa is the dark horse this time.

They got rid of the "choker" tag in the last WTC. Maybe they can start winning more ICC trophies now that the monkey is off the back.

South Africa are one of the contenders for certain.

New Zealand as usual are the only relevant dark horses for this tournament. They have an okay-ish team capable of upsetting the bigger teams, but will lose more often than not to them.

NZ became weaker. No Southee, Boult etc.

I do not think they are the dark horse anymore.
