If this pattern forms, Ind will make it to the final of WC2023

[zen]

Finals of World Cups in subcon

 

Base: Aus v Eng 1987 

1: Aus v SL 1996 - The winner of the previous final makes it to the next final

2. Ind v SL 2011 - The winner of the previous final makes it to the next final

3. ? 2023 - will this pattern form?

 

It needs 3 touch points to form a pattern but anyways, as usual, you heard it first here!

Another Final failure coming....

Good to see the pattern play out!

So that means...

To win, Ind needs to beat another key trend as well - it has never won a world cup when Pak has not made it to the KOs:

 

1983 - Pak lost to WI in SF

2007 - Ind beat Pak in F

2011 - Ind beat Pak in SF 

 

Additionally, in the 1985 MCC World Series in Australia, Ind beat Pak in the F.

India has also never beaten Australia more than once in the same world cup.

Apart from watching an over here and there, I followed the WC through scorecards. Despite doing well in the group stage, there were various clues/patterns (some of them are listed here) that told me that India would not win the tournament. The team was creating an illusion that would eventually crash in the KOs. 

 

PS one additional pattern as a bonus: Ind does not win a World Cup when someone in the top order (#1-3) is the captain. If we talk about the 1985 world series (not a world cup but a key world tournament esp. at that point in time), Gavaskar, who was the captain, batted in the middle order with Srikant-Shastri opening and Azhar batting at #3. One of the reasons, I was hoping that Hardik Pandya would somehow take over the captaincy.
