Sir,
The pressure of sport was starkly evident at Kensington Oval Stadium in Georgetown, Barbados, where South Africa crumbled despite a promising position. Managing IPL teams emphasizes unity, a goal achieved by current team management. Coach Rahul Dravid’s persistence in staying until this World Cup and backing Rohit Sharma as captain, despite doubts about his selection, proved crucial.
Dravid and Sharma effectively led a diverse group of stars, crucial for championship success, according to an IPL manager.IPL lessons were pivotal, teaching players to handle pressures in bowling, fielding, and critical moments like Suryakumar’s catch, Arshdeep’s final overs, and Pandya’s crucial last over. Unlike football leagues like in the UK, India’s success in the T20 World Cup owes much to these lessons. India became the first team to win the men’s T20 World Cup unbeaten, with eight consecutive victories and one washout against Canada. This streak ties the record for the longest in the tournament’s history.
