India’s Journey to the World Test Championship Final 2023
Cricket is a game of numbers, and no one knows this better than the Indian Cricket Team. As the 2021-23 World Test Championship cycle comes to a close, India has had five captains, two coaches, six series, ten wins, and five losses. With Virat Kohli’s failure to secure the last WTC crown, it is now up to Rohit Sharma to end the ICC trophy drought when they face Australia at the Oval on June 7.
Mixed Results
This two-year period has been a rollercoaster. India has won all series at home, but when it comes to overseas results, it stands at one loss and one draw. In England, India had a 2-1 lead but failed to win the series. In South Africa, India went from a 1-0 lead to a 1-2 loss.
Personnel Changes
In between, India had a change in coaching personnel. Ravi Shastri made way for Rahul Dravid, while Paras Mhambrey took charge of bowling after Bharat Arun stepped down.
Conclusion
India’s road to the WTC Final 2023 has been a long one, with many highs and lows. With Rohit Sharma at the helm, India will be hoping to end their ICC trophy drought when they face Australia at the Oval on June 7. With the right personnel and strategy in place, India will be looking to make their mark on the world stage.
