He said, “If I talk about this team, we have some players who have been playing for a long time and they know their role very well. I can say that this is the best team with which we are going to play the T20 World Cup.” The Indian captain said, “It was tough, because last time we lost in the semi-finals and came so close. But every time you should think about positive things, work hard on yourself and your fitness. We have tried to meet all the criteria before entering the tournament.” India have come close to winning ICC titles over the past decade but are yet to win a World Cup in any format. They reached the semi-finals of the 2023 T20 World Cup in South Africa but lost to eventual champions Australia.
