- The first two world cups went to West Indies before India went onto break their supremacy, defeating them in the 1983 final courtesy of a maverick performance by the side with Kapil Dev playing the role of the leader to perfection with a meticulous and decisive performance with both the bat and ball.
- Having miraculously managed to recover from a position of no return to put on 183 on the board, India made the most of that momentum garnered, continuing on their marauding run to dismiss West Windies for 140 and win by 43 runs.
- The country went onto repeating the expansive feat 28 years later when they lifted the much-coveted trophy in their own home, becoming one of the rare sides to have managed to accomplish this exuberant feat in their own country in a successful run chase of 275 crafted by Gautam Gambhir.
