Last but not the least, @GautamGambhir deserves huge credit. He faced plenty of criticism while planning for this World Cup, but he stuck to his process and kept experimenting until he found the right combination.
He stayed fully involved from the outset, constantly supporting the Indian captain during tough moments and helping keep the team together.
And when the time came, he showed great character by crediting Ajit Agarkar, VVS Laxman, and Rahul Dravid for their contributions to Indian cricket. That says a lot about the kind of person he is,his heart is in the right place as always.
