India’s ICC Title Drought

The Men in Blue last won an ICC title in 2013 under the leadership of MS Dhoni which was the ICC Champions Trophy. Since then, it has been a decade that India has been waiting for their next ICC title. They have lost repeatedly in the semifinals and finals of ICC events in the last decade with the team facing severe criticism for not winning an ICC final. They have lost as many as nine ICC finals in the last decade with the latest of them being the ICC T20 World Cup semifinal against England.

Team Composition

• Rohit Sharma will be leading the side in this ICC event.
• Virat Kohli will be the key batter.
