And that achievement became a watershed moment in Indian cricket, propelling it further and taking it from strength to strength. There are multiple stories and anecdotes of course that we have all heard and enjoyed over the years about India's incredible achievement - from complete underdogs to world champions. A recent Bollywood movie, starring Ranveer Singh as Kapil Dev and called 83, recapped the journey of Team India in that edition of the World Cup and how they went on to beat the mighty West Indies, who had won the two previous editions in 1975 and 1979, in the final to become the champions of the world. The legendary Mohinder Amarnath, who was the Man of the Match in the semi-final vs England (46 & 2-27) and the final vs the West Indies (26 & 3-12) in the 1983 World Cup was a guest on Times of India's sports podcast Sportscast earlier this year, after the movie 83 had released and recalled many wonderful anecdotes about that magical journey that changed the face of Indian cricket forever and gave multiple generations that followed the belief that took India to the pinnacle of world cricket.
