Team India and fans really were devastated after getting defeated by Australia by a margin of 6-wickets in the 2023 World Cup finals held at the Narendra Modi Stadium on November 19. This time, everyone had anticipated India to lift the 2023 World Cup trophy and in a shocking turn of events, things turned out differently for the Men in Blue.
Despite winning 10 consecutive matches in the tournament, the final showdown saw India losing against Australia which was a heart breaker for all of India. The whole of the cricket world were sure of India to be the World Cup favourite this time, given the fact that the tournament was being hosted by India.
Discontentment continues
For fans in India, no wonder cricket is not just a sport for them but an emotion. After India’s loss, fans all over the country have been indulging and talking about various possibilities and conditions under which India could have lifted the trophy. While some of them criticised players for not playing cleverly, some asserted that on the final match day, India had bad luck and that it was not their day to celebrate.
Mohammad Kaif’s tweet
While people have been continuously talking about India’s performance in the just concluded World Cup tournament and it’s several aspects, former Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif took to his twitter handle to ascertain the fact that the game is over with Australia having won the Cup and India being the team of the tournament. In his tweet, he remarked “Facts: It was Australia’s daughter in the final, they won, they are World Cup winners.
More facts: India comprehensively won 10 games, they lost 11th, they had the best bowlers and batters. They were the tournament’s best team. Both facts, on paper and on field. Relax Australia.”
This tweet of Mohammad Kaif seems to initiate a conclusion to all the discussions fans are having on India’s World Cup campaign. Kaif notably intended that having won 10 tournaments, India are still the tournament’s favourites and feature the best bowlers and batsmen of the 2023 World Cup which is a great achievement in itself.
