India ICC World Cup History 1975

The 1975 World Cup was played in England. The Indian squad was led by Srinivasaraghavan Venkataraghavan. The relatively inexperienced with the one-day format Indian team, started their quest with a match against England in London’s Lords stadium and lost. This game would be remembered for Gavaskar’s paltry 36 run knock by playing 174 balls throughout 60 overs. India’s campaign came to a halt in the Group Stage as they finished 3rd among 4 teams in the group.

Let’s check the last match performance of Indian Cricket team:
