CWC 2019: Top-4 teams with the Highest Win to Loss ratio since the 2015 CWC

#2 India [ W/L- 2.074]

India will be looking to lift the trophy for the third time

They might have their issues when it comes to the No.4 spot in the middle-order, but such has been the dominance of India's top-3 in Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, and Virat Kohli backed up by a potent bowling attack, has resulted in the Men in Blue dominating the ODI circuit.

India's journey post the 2015 World Cup is basically a tale of two halves. The first half [April 2015- January 2017] saw the Men in Blue lose bilateral series to Bangladesh [1-2, 2015], South Africa [2-3, 2015] and Australia [1-4, 2016]. The Australian series may not have gone India's way but it paved way for the emergence of Jasprit Bumrah.

Bumrah with his unorthodox action and pin-point accuracy to go along with his death-bowling exploits has emerged as the leader of India's fast bowling unit since his debut, claiming 85 wickets in 49 games to form a potent bowling attack alongside Bhuvneshwar Kumar [72 wickets] and Mohammed Shami [26 wickets].

After registering a 3-2 win at home against New Zealand in late 2016, MS Dhoni decided to hand over the reins of the side to Virat Kohli.

Under Kohli's leadership, India went on to beat England [2-1] at home before ending up as the runners-up in the 2017 Champions Trophy. The loss to Pakistan [by 180 runs] proved to be a tipping point for Team India. One of the reasons for India's loss in the final was their spinners' inability to pick up wickets in the middle overs. With wrist-spin being the flavor of the season, Kohli and the management decided to go with the duo of Kuldeep Yadav [87 wickets] and Yuzvendra Chahal [72 wickets]. And the move turned out to be a masterstroke.

Barring series defeats to England [1-2, 2018] and Australia [2-3, 2019], the Men in Blue have been largely dominant since the Champions Trophy, registering series wins in Sri Lanka [5-0, 2017], South Africa [5-1, 2018], Australia [2-1, 2019] and New Zealand [4-1, 2019] and not to forget the six-side Asia Cup last year.

In 86 matches since the 2015 World Cup, Kohli's men have won 56 of the 86 games they've played boasting of an impressive W/L ratio of 2.074 and will go into the 2019 event as one of the leading contenders.
