25 June 1983
That 1983 victory means a lot to every Indian. Because something happened on this day when no one expected that India would win the World Cup. Under the captaincy of Kapil Dev, the Indian team defeated two-time world champion Clive Lloyd’s team in the final. It gave the country the experience of living the historic moment. It was a moment when Indians were feeling like world champions worldwide. Then there were the Indian cricket team members, Kapil Dev, Sunil Gavaskar, K. Srikanth, Sandeep Patil, Mohinder Amarnath, Roger Binny, Kirti Azad Yashpal Sharma, Madan Lal, Syed Kirmani, and Balveer Sandhu. Together they stopped the West Indies team, who took a hat-trick to win the title in the World Cup.
Kapil Dev
Kapil Dev showed and told that the Indian team was never less than anyone. To achieve anything, we need courage, confidence, and passion. It was the foundation of Kapil Dev who made the Indian team realize that they could win other World Cups in the future. It was why the Indian team won the T20 World Cup in 2007 and the ODI World Cup again in 2011. Not only this, but India also won the ICC Champions Trophy twice.
BCCI is currently the richest cricket board globally. But then they did not have money to give to the 1983 World Cup winners. For this, they had got a concert done by the melody queen Lata Mangeshkar. Each player was given one lakh rupees from the earnings of that concert of Lata Mangeshkar. Talking about the salary, Indian players used to get a Rs 1500 match fee and also Rs 200 per day allowance at that time.
