In the last seven years, the Indian National Cricket Team has grown from strength to strength across the formats. Under the leadership of Virat Kohli, the Indian team managed to do exceptionally against all the teams in the world in tough conditions. But, unfortunately, they failed to win a single ICC trophy under his captaincy.

Speaking of the same, the world cup winning skipper of Australia Steve Waugh asked Indian fans to be patient, as they are going to receive something special from the Indian team. He believes it is just a matter of time for India to win the significant event.

He further stated that it is never an easy task to win major events. Steve Waugh believes India will win a major event sooner than later under the captaincy of Virat Kohli if they continue their dominance in the same manner.

“It is not easy to win big tournaments,” Steve Waugh was quoted as saying by PTI. “And you take it for granted when you are doing it. I think it just shows how special it is but India are very capable. They will be up there, top contenders in any competition. India fans you need to stay patient. Only a matter of time before they win something big again.

“Is it a mental block that India keep losing in the knock-outs? “It is not mental. It is just a sport. Like I said it is not easy to win big tournaments. Australia had a great run in World Cups. We didn’t do this time but we have had an incredible run,” he added.
