India came within touching distance of winning a World Cup trophy. Rohit Sharma and Co. won 10 matches on the bounce in the 2023 World Cup before losing to Australia by six wickets in the final the tournament.

A convincing bowling effort by the Aussies restricted India to a total of 240 runs in the first innings. A flicker of hope remained for India at the start of the second half as their pacers took three early wickets, however, Travis Head hammered a century, leading Australia to their record-extending sixth ODI World Cup title.

Even after Australia came out victorious comprehensively, former India cricketer Mohammad Kaif refused to accept that the best team won the competition, terming it as a bad day for the Indian outfit.

“Congratulations to Australia but I am not ready to accept that the best team won the World Cup. This Indian team has been the best side. They would win so many times playing against the same Australian team, even though they lost today. It was one of those bad day, this happens sometimes,” Mohammad Kaif said as quoted on Star Sports after the final.

Fans condemn Mohammad Kaif’s ‘Best team did not win World Cup’ comment

Former Australia cricketer Damien Martyn took to ‘X’ on Wednesday, drawing the attention towards Kaif’s statement, expressing his disapproval.

This led to a barrage of tweets from netizens, who supported Martyn’s opinion, mocking Kaif for his ‘best team did not win World Cup’ comment.

Obviously –

“Best team on paper” does not equate with
“Team with superior strategy and performance on day”

Most World Cups in any sport aren’t won by best team on paper, they are won by the team that takes the big moments.

Here it was Head’s catch and his innings

Best team on paper but the game is played on a pitch

The best teams don’t choke

Just as stupid as England thinking they morally won the ashes

‘That’s one of the bizarre statements that I have heard’ – Gautam Gambhir replies to Mohammad Kaif

Former India batter Gautam Gambhir called Kaif’s remarks “bizarre.” He accentuated the fact that Australia played better in the knockout match, and they were actually the best team as they won the final.

“A lot of people might not like it. I heard some of the experts saying that the best team has not gone on to win the World Cup. That’s absolutely not true. That’s one of the bizarre statements that I have heard. It’s actually the best team that has won the World Cup. Let’s be honest,” Gambhir said as quoted to Sportskeeda.

He further asserted that India winning 10 matches straight did not matter much in the end as no advantage is given to the team which finishes first in the league stage.

“Only the best team wins the World Cup. You cannot define it that way – that India won 10 matches but played one poor game. The reality is the semi-final and the final were the knockout matches. It did not matter whether you finished first or fourth,” he added.
