World Cup 2019: Rating the performance of all the teams

Modified Jul 22, 2019 08:43 IST

England lifted their maiden World Cup after a great performance in the finals.

#3 India

Rating: 8.5/10

India the most dominant team in this World Cup

Much like Australia, India too dominated the league stages of the World Cup. Overall, India performed like a well-oiled machine. Unlike most teams, India didn’t rely on a few players. Instead, nearly every player contributed in each match. Everyone knew their roles and played their parts to perfection.

Rohit Sharma was the standout performer for India with five centuries. ‘The Hitman’ was heading into the World Cup low on confidence due to his poor form. But once the tournament got underway, Rohit delivered the performance of his life.

India topped the points table with seven wins and one loss out of their nine games.

Unfortunately for India, one poor performance against New Zealand in the semi-finals led to a billion heartbreaks and an emotional exit from the World Cup.

If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
