No, this team is not better than the 1983 team. That team was filled with alrounders - Kapil Dev, Ravi Shastri, Roger Binny, Balvinder Sandhu, Madan Lal, Mahender Amarnath, Kirti Azad. This team has no alrounders. After our six batsmen, the whole team can collapse without addition of even a single run. Then Kapil Dev could change the course of a lost match (Remember his innings against Zimbave), In the 5th ODI, there was not a single batsman who could resist even at home ground and take the inncings to the desired conclusion.
In our team, we desperately again need the match winners/all rounders/finishers like Kapil Dev, Mohinder Amarnath, Ravi Shastri and others. At present, we do not have even a single all rounder.
