Ashwin further said, “I think West Indies’ reign in the ODI World Cup after 1983 is over. We came very close to victory in 1987 as well. But since then Australia has become the best team in the world and has consistently performed well in the World Cup.
Let us tell you that the performance of the Australian team in the ODI World Cup 2023 has been excellent.

Ricky Ponting was the captain of the team in the year 2003 and 2007 World Cup. He was able to make the team champion. Australia won the title for the 5th time in 2015 under the leadership of Michael Clarke.
