Chasing team won last 4 World Cup.

Exactly!. Also No Ashwin. Anything below 400 and we're gone .

Bias! We lost 2016 T20 World Cup in India too. So don't say things like that. We learnt our lesson from our defeat at World Test Championship.

You are talking about semi Final against Windies right? It was one sided right?

Put runs on the board & pressure will be on Australia. Rohit have defended in many IPL finals successfully and pressure will be there on the chasing team no matter what!

I'm more concerned about Ashwin. He could have single handidly finished the game .

It is not a good idea to make changes in your XI for the final, when the same XI was winning matches on the trot. Even I don't see it as a good idea to get Ashwin into the XI without giving recent match experience.

Why are you comparing Test format with ODI format? It's different game altogether.



We lost in 2003 due to not picking Laxman and Agarkar. Sachin, Viru, Ganguly, Dravid, Yuvraj were in prime form as a batter. Laxman and Agarkar would have made huge difference in my opinion.


We didn't give chance to Gambhir in 2007 and our bowling wasn't good enough. Everyone was new. So it's important we get new fast bowlers for four years between two world cups and manage their workload across format.



2011 was complete team effort. Dhoni in Final, Raina in Quarters, Sachin in Semis, Zaheer Khan overall, Yuvraj role as a bowler in whole WC made things easy.



2015 wasn't good because of two reasons, we lacked good sixth bowler. Manoj Tiwari instead of Rahane and Suresh Raina would have helped a lot.



2019, we lost due to Shikhar Dhawan got injured. Pant was new to team, DK+KJ was not a good choice in XI itself. Number four was not good enough. Chahal+Kuldeep didn't get good enough backing after CT2017 final.




2017 we lost due to Kumble saga and bit of ego of Kohli. Also Kohli focussed more on test matches that time.
