Indian National Cricket Team Plans for Cricket World Cups 2023

Since its inception, India has won two ICC ODI World Cups, the first in 1983 under the brave leadership of Kapil Dev when they beat the Mighty West Indies, which was the Power House of Cricket at that time.

After 28 years in the 2011 edition, India lifted the trophy where Mahendra Singh Dhoni led the team to glory and played the winning shot against Nuwan Kulasekra.

Ravi Shastri's famous commentary “Dhoni Finishes off in Style, A magnificent hit into the crowd. India lift the World Cup after 28 years. The party starts in the dressing room.” still echoes in my mind.

Since 2013, India has struggled to win any ICC trophy whether it is T20 World Cup, Champions Trophy, or ODI World Cup.

Now, is the chance for India to claim the trophy because it is the host and can take advantage of home conditions.
