June 25, 1983 is a date in Indian cricket history. On this day, 42 years ago, Kapil Dev’s India shocked the cricket world by defeating the Mighty West Indies to claim its first ICC World Cup title at Lord’s. Vijay not only rebuked the sports scenario in India, but also took off a generation of dreams, one of which was 10 -year -old Sachin Tendulkar. Now widely considered as one of the greatest batsmen in the history of sports, Tendulkar faced X on the anniversary of that prestigious victory, how that moment changed his life forever. “I was only 10 years old when India won the World Cup on this day in 1983. The moment had a dream, and this dream became my journey,” he said that he had shared a picture of the prestigious squad in history three decades ago. India’s underdog victory against the champion of the two -time reign was not just a game upset, but, it was a statement of belief and patience. Defending a modest 183 on a vibrant God’s pitch, India’s bowlers destroyed a star-staded West Indies lineup, including legends such as Viv Richards, Clive Lloyd and Desmond Hens.
