Since 2011, India has not won a single ICC trophy. The Indian team has played various knockout games in the ICC tournaments only to get knocked out by their opponents. India’s recent defeat against Australia in the World Test Championship Final has earned them the title of biggest chokers in cricket at the moment. Surpassing the legacy of South African cricket team in this department.
3 Reasons Why India are the Biggest Chokers in the Cricket World Right Now
1- No ICC Trophy in 12 Years
The Indian cricket team has not won a single ICC trophy in 12 years despite reaching the end stages of various ICC tournaments. Somehow, India manages to choke in the knockout stages as the players just can’t feel the heat at the biggest stage.
2- Individualism Over Team Spirit
Over the past 12 years there have been countless rumours of players being pitted against each other. The Indian fans hail their favourite as the greatest and deem the others as worthless. The so called rits and fan-wars have created an atmosphere where winning an IPL trophy is bigger than winning an ICC trophy.
3- Mismanagement
BCCI replacing Virat Kohli as captain, Selectors picking a team without any merits, Office politics and various other controversies have shown that there is huge mismanagement in the Indian cricket team. This mismanagement has hampered the performance of Indian team despite having a good set of players who are capable of winning any tournament.
