Former India batter Mohammad Kaif's views regarding India's World Cup final loss to Australia by 6 wickets, star batter David Warner has entered the debate, emphasizing the significance of performing under pressure.
The former India batter Kaif has claimed that the best team didn’t win the World Cup.
Despite not being the favorites for the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday, Australia delivered a masterclass, outclassing the formidable Indian team.

India had an impeccable record leading up to the title match, winning all 10 of their previous games, including a semi-final triumph against New Zealand. However, their unbeaten streak came to an end in the World Cup final against the Men in Yellow. In front of a crowd exceeding 90,000 fans, India was bowled out for 240 after Pat Cummins elected to bat first.

David Warner and Marnus Labuschagne showcased sensational fielding performances. Cummins' crucial dismissals of Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer in the middle overs tilted the balance in Australia's favor, putting India on the backfoot.
The unexpected turn of events has sparked a debate, with Gautam Gambhir and Kaif sharing their perspectives, and now, Warner adding his voice to the discussion.
“I like MK, issue is it does not matter what’s on paper. At the end of the day you need to perform when it matters. That’s why they call it a final. That’s the day that counts and it can go either way, that’s sports. 2027 here we come,” Warner said, responding to a comment from Kaif.
Australia chased down the 241-run target in 43 overs, with Travis Head hitting 137 off just 120 balls.
