This is absolutely great analysis and your predictions did come true! But trust India to defy all predictions and emerge victorious in the end even after a bad start. The 83 world cup is a classic example that I had written about some time back. https://www.dhirubhai.net/posts/aparna-bhambure-a8642216_the-other-side-ofcricket-activity-7166777012450185216-Coxg?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop
