If Pakistani fans would love to go through the section of Cricket World Cup 1992, Indian fans would love to read about this section. This is the section that talks about Cricket World Cup 1983. Cricket World Cup 1983 was held in England. India emerged as the new world champions, after West Indies by winning Cricket World Cup 1983 final against the mighty West Indies in the final at Lords on June 25 1983. 1983 Cricket World Cup final witnessed the fall of West Indies, thanks to an all round performance by the spirited Indian side.
1983 Cricket World Cup final was a low score game, as India were tumbled for a petty 183, thanks to some excellent bowling by pace quadrant of Joel Garner, Malcolm Marshall, Michael Holding and Andy Roberts. Srikkanth was the highest scorer for India with a score of 38 runs. He eventually remained the highest scorer in Cricket World Cup 1983 final, as no West Indian batsmen was able to score more than 33 (scored by Vivian Richards). Many remembered that memorable catch by the Indian Captain Kapil Dev in the 1983 Cricket World Cup final that dismissed Richards. Kapil ran for about 40 meters to his back and took the catch with precision. West Indies could have easily won Cricket World Cup 1983 final on any other given day, but June 25 1983 was meant for India.
Indian team was charged up for Cricket World Cup 1983 final, as they couldn’t afford to lose after going that close. As the last West Indian wicket fell in the 1983 Cricket World Cup final, Indian fans present in the ground got crazy and came in the ground to touch their heroes. 1983 Cricket World Cup final was a memorable final. Indian victory in Cricket World Cup 1983 final also marked the rise of a team which was considered a weak side.
