Returned empty handed even after 12 years
Team India was the biggest contender to win the World Cup this time. It had won 9 consecutive matches in the league stage and made it to the final by defeating New Zealand in the semi-finals. Despite this excellent form, she missed out on winning the title.

Lost opportunity for the third time in a row
Team India has played the ODI World Cup three times since 2011. India had to face defeat on all three occasions. In the 2015 World Cup, Team India was defeated by Australia in the semi-finals. After this, New Zealand defeated India in the semi-finals of the 2019 World Cup and knocked them out of the tournament. This time Team India made it to the finals, but did not win this time either.
Australia won the title for the sixth time
The Indian team was looking in full form with 10 consecutive wins. India had defeated Australia in their first match of the league stage, but Australia took revenge in the final. At the same time, after losing the first two matches, Australia looked in its rhythm. Australia played like a champion and won the trophy for the sixth time.
