“Not a single ICC trophy in 10 years…” Has Team India become the new choker? Former cricketer Venkatesh Prasad gave a surprising statement
Team India has not been able to win a single ICC trophy since 2013. Venkatesh Prasad and Virat Kohli (Pic Source-Twitter) In the year 2023, Team India had a chance to win two ICC trophies each. He had the first chance to win the World Test Championship trophy. After that, Team India had a good golden opportunity to win the ODI World Cup. Had won all the league stage matches in ODI World Cup 2023. After this the team defeated New Zealand in the semi-finals and made it to the finals. However, Team India then lost to Australia in the final. After this defeat, India’s dream of becoming world champion for the third time was shattered. Let us tell you that the Indian team has not been able to win any ICC tournament since 2013, hence many fans started calling Team India the new chokers. Regarding the question regarding fans’ chokers Venkatesh Prasad gave a funny answer Venkatesh Prasad has given his opinion regarding whether the Indian cricket team is the new choker. Actually, recently Venkatesh Prasad had organized a question and answer session on social media platform X. During this session, a fan asked him, Sir, do you also think that Team India has become the new chokers of world cricket? Because we have lost 10 consecutive ICC knockouts in the last 10 years. Answering this question, Venkatesh Prasad said that he does not consider Team India as chokers. Venkatesh Prasad responded, “No chokers, we have won 2 Test series against Australia in Australia, the last in 2020-21 by 36 all out, I consider it one of the biggest wins for India, that too When more than half the players were not available. But there is definitely something not right about not winning a major tournament in 11 years.” India will once again have a chance to win the ICC trophy next year, when they will participate in the ICC T20 World Cup to be held in USA and West Indies in June. Talking about Team India, it is currently playing a two-match Test series in South Africa. After this he will play a three-match T20I series against Afghanistan.
