Kolkata: A global title may be eluding India for a decade now, but former captain Sourav Ganguly said on Thursday that there is no need to press panic button while placing the onus on batters to win the World Cup at home.

India have not won an ICC event after the MS Dhoni-led side triumphed in the Champions Trophy beating England in 2013.

Since then, India have featured in eight knockout matches, including semifinals and finals, in the ICC tournaments but failed to win a title.

“You cannot win World Cups all the time, there will be bad times, there will be gaps,” Ganguly said during the launch of Cycle Pure Agarbathi’s new products to mark its 75 years.

India have lost two successive World Test Championships Finals in 2021 and 2023, while they exited in semifinals of the ODI World Cup in 2015 and 2019, besides losing the Champions Trophy final in 2017.

It’s the same story in T20 World Cups. They lost the final in 2014 and were bundled out in the semifinals twice — 2016 and 2022.

However, India will be taking a shot at Cup glory during this World Cup at home, and Ganguly said their batsmen must deliver.

“They will have to bat very well, if they bat well they will win,” Ganguly, who led India to the 2003 World Cup final, said.

India’s preparation will begin with the Asia Cup 2023 where they will face Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Afghanistan before playing a three-match series against Australia at home.

Ganguly, however, said each tournament would carry its own dynamics.

“The World Cup is different, Asia Cup is different and the Australia home series is different. Every tournament depends on how they play that particular moment. India are a strong side; but they have to play well during the World Cup,” he said.
