Win Projections to be updated soon
It’s a huge moment for Rahul Dravid as a coach of team India, according to Sanjay Bangar, who spoke exclusively to Star Sports’ “Follow the Blues” about how important this World Cup is for him. Normally, when we talk about football history, we talk about captains and players who have won the World Cup as both players and coaches. Rahul has that opportunity, as he received a silver medal in 2003. He has worked really hard with the Indian team, preparing and planning ahead. Rahul’s efforts are valued not only with the Indian men’s squad but also with the NCA and the under-19 team setup. All things considered, Rahul Dravid will have a significant day as a coach.
Because managers used to be mentioned when we talked about coaches in the past. When discussing the 1983 ICC Cricket World Cup, the name PR Man Singh Saab is always brought up. Similarly, for the 2011 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup, Gary Kirsten’s position and commitment to the team are addressed with the same breadth and importance as MS Dhoni’s. Furthermore, Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid will live on in history for their roles and contributions to the Indian team’s World Cup victory if they win tomorrow.
“Rohit scored 500 runs in the previous World Cup, but India did not win,” stated MD Kaif in reference to India’s captain Rohit Sharma’s aim of winning the tournament. He played exceptionally well in seaming conditions, scored a few hundred, and played well overall, but all of that is already in the past. The team has performed well with both the batters and the bowlers in good form, and he wants to win the World Cup here. He plays a distinct role as captain and leader here.
Let me also remind you that no one can recall the number 2. I’ll give an example of a time when I was standing next to Ravi Shastri and the interviewer called him a World Cup winner. I was not mentioned because I had lost the 2003 World Cup, and when interviews are conducted 20 years after the events, people rarely remember the losers but they always remember and treasure the winning team and players. This is our best chance to win the World Cup because of the way Virat Kohli has scored 700 runs with all the other players contributing so well, and because Rohit has led from the front and played his shots while batting. It will be difficult to find a team performing as well as this in the next World Cup. It’s either now or never.
Sanjay Bangar stated, “As Md. Kaif mentioned, winners are the ones who are always remembered in the end, and this team has the possibility to win the World Cup. Tomorrow’s final will be a defining moment for the players and the skipper, Rohit Sharma. The World Cup was not held in India in 2015 or 2019. Now that it is, they are participating in the competition, and they are aware of the local conditions and the unique support a team gets at home. Although you wouldn’t anticipate this kind of support in other nations like Australia, Sri Lanka, or New Zealand, it’s a huge positive that all these variables have come together and the team consists of seven or eight players who are competing in their second or third World Cup. Thus, I have no doubt that the group will accomplish its goals and land in the spot they deserve.
