Team India Needs To Move On- Kapil Dev

While speaking to reports, World Cup-winning captain Kapil Dev shared a message for Team India. He feels that the team needs to move on as they can’t carry this blow for the rest of life.

“Sportsman has to move on. Can’t carry on this blow for the rest of life. This is for the fans. A sportsman has to move on. What’s happened cannot be undone. Keep working hard. That’s what a sportsman is all about. They played really good cricket. Yes, they couldn’t cross the final hurdle. What we can learn from this mistake is what a sportsman is all about,” Kapil Dev said.

After losing the final, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma said that they failed to stitch big partnerships in the match.

“We tried everything we could from our side. But yeah, it wasn’t supposed to be. We couldn’t stitch a big partnership there. And that’s exactly what Australia did to win the game. They stitched a big partnership after those three wickets,” Rohit had said after the defeat.
