Former Indian cricketer Gautam Gambhir has shared his thoughts on Mohammed Kaif’s remarks after Australia surprisingly won the World Cup for the sixth time in Ahmedabad. The Men in Blue played brilliantly and dominated the event on home soil, but were eliminated in the final by Australia.
After the conclusion of the 2023 ODI World Cup, former Indian cricketer Mohammed Kaif commented and claimed that it was not the best team that won the World Cup. He also said that India has the best team on paper and is second to none.
In a video shared by PTI, Gautam Gambhir said that this is a strange statement from his former team and believes that the best team won the 2023 World Cup. He admits that India has always been great. Regardless of the team on paper, the team that wins the World Cup should be considered the best team.
“It’s the best team that wins the World Cup. It’s that easy.” India were really good and played really good cricket, but in the end they won the World Cup. is the best team. I understand that clearly. A lot of people are saying that the best team didn’t win, but I think that’s a very strange statement,” Gautam Gambhir said.
Rohit Sharma’s team dominated the entire 2023 World Cup in terms of precise planning and execution on the pitch. With India preparing to tour South Africa in the World Test Championship cycle, the team appears to be in a transition period and looking to continue their dominant performances in all three formats of the game.
After Virat Kohli stepped down as India’s captain after the 2021 T20 World Cup, Rohit Sharma brought a new dimension to Indian cricket. The Indian team performed flawlessly in his ODI World Cup, but lost to Australia in the final of the high-profile tournament.
Team India will be looking to overcome the crushing defeat ahead of the 2024 T20 World Cup, which will be jointly hosted by West Indies and the United States of America. The Indian team will be aiming to win the title that has eluded them since the inaugural edition in 2007, led by MS Dhoni.
