Synopsis

The 1983 Cricket World Cup was the third edition of the ICC Cricket World Cup tournament, held in England from 9 to 25 June 1983. The tournament featured eight teams, including the host nation England, as well as Australia, India, Pakistan, West Indies, Sri Lanka, New Zealand, and Zimbabwe.

The West Indies were the defending champions, having won the previous two World Cup tournaments in 1975 and 1979. However, in a surprising turn of events, they were defeated by India in the final match at Lord's Cricket Ground on 25 June 1983.

India's victory in the 1983 Cricket World Cup was a historic moment for the country, as it was their first-ever World Cup win. The team was led by Kapil Dev, who played a crucial role in India's success throughout the tournament.

The 1983 Cricket World Cup final is considered one of the greatest upsets in cricket history, as India, a relative underdog at the time, defeated the dominant West Indies team to claim their maiden World Cup title.
