Chennai,
After winning the Champions Trophy in 2013 under Dhoni’s young squad, the Indian team has been unable to win any ICC trophy. The Indian team led by Dhoni has won the T20 World Cup in 2007, the ODI World Cup in 2011 and the Champions Trophy in 2013.
Dhoni is the only captain who has won all kinds of trophies for the Indian team.
After the 2013 Champions Trophy, the Indian team went out in the knockout stages of the 2014 T20 World Cup, 2015 ODI World Cup, 2016 T20 World Cup, 2017 Champions Trophy, 2019 ODI World Cup and 2022 T20 World Cup. In the 2021 T20 World Cup, the Indian team left without advancing even to the knockout round.
In this case, let’s see if the Indian team, which has not won any major trophy in the last 10 years, will win the ODI World Cup at home this year and give the fans a treat.
In this case, Srikanth, a former Indian player and a Tamil player who was part of the team when the Indian team won the World Cup in 1983, said that Virat Kohli will perform well in the 2023 World Cup just like Gautam Gambhir did in the 2011 World Cup.
He said in this regard,
What a great feeling it was to win the World Cup in 1983 and then to be the head coach of the team was a great moment. I will tell my grandkids the 2011 World Cup story. Firstly Gautam Gambhir’s brilliant innings was incredible, that too in the World Cup series, I am proud of him.
His batting was excellent throughout the World Cup series. I think Virat Kohli will perform in the 2023 world cup as Gautham Gambhir did in the 2011 world cup.
I think this time Gautam Gambhir will do the same as he has stood up in important matches in the past. He will perform in this World Cup like Ishan Kishan, who stood at one corner and displayed his calmness when he scored a double century.
It’s all about freedom, you give your players freedom, do what you want, it doesn’t matter if you’re out, play your game. He said this adaptation is very important for the team.
