Trophy dream broken even after 12 years
World Cup 2023 Final: The final match of ODI World Cup 2023 was played between the teams of India and Australia. This match took place at Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad where Team India had to face defeat. At the same time, Australia won the ODI World Cup title for a record sixth time. Team India’s batting was a complete flop in this match. After this, the Indian bowlers failed to take wickets in the middle overs, due to which the dream of winning the World Cup once again remained a dream.
Returned empty handed even after 12 years
Team India was the biggest contender to win the World Cup this time. It had won 9 consecutive matches in the league stage and made it to the final by defeating New Zealand in the semi-finals. Despite this excellent form, she missed out on winning the title. Let us tell you that Team India won its last ODI World Cup in 2011 under the captaincy of MS Dhoni, since then the Indian team has not been able to win the ODI World Cup trophy.
Lost opportunity for the third time in a row
Team India has played the ODI World Cup three times since 2011. India had to face defeat on all three occasions. In the 2015 World Cup, Team India was defeated by Australia in the semi-finals. After this, New Zealand defeated India in the semi-finals of the 2019 World Cup and knocked them out of the tournament. This time Team India made it to the finals, but did not win this time either.
The team disintegrated under pressure
Team India’s batting is continuously flopping in big matches. In the semi-finals of the 2015 World Cup, the Indian team was all out for 233 runs. At the same time, in the semi-finals of the 2019 World Cup, Team India could score only 221 runs and was all out. This time also Team India could score only 240 runs and was all out. At the same time, in these three big matches, the Indian bowlers did not all out the opposing team even once.
League stage lions are defeated in knockout
The surprising thing is that Team India has been on top in the league stage points table of all the ODI World Cups played after the 2011 World Cup. But she gets completely destroyed in knockout matches. In the 2015 World Cup, Team India won 6 out of 6 matches in the group stage. At the same time, in the 2019 World Cup, Team India remained on top in the league stage by winning 7 out of 9 matches. This time too, it remained on top by winning 9 consecutive matches, but Team India is continuously flopping in the knockouts.
This was how the final of the 2023 World Cup looked like.
In the final of this World Cup played between India and Australia, Team India batted first after losing the toss. But the Indian team’s innings was all out after scoring 240 runs in 50 overs. At the same time, Australia achieved this target only at the loss of 4 wickets. In this match, Travis Head scored a brilliant century for Australia. At the same time, KL Rahul scored the highest score of 66 runs for India.
