India lost the 2023 World Cup, going down to Australia, after winning ten games on the trot and here are the player ratings for the side.

Shubman Gill: 6

354 runs @ 44.25, 50s: 4

Gill was the only India batter in the top five to not score a hundred in the World Cup. The opener missed the first two games due to Covid-19 and ended with four fifties. But he was inconsistent, making five scores below 30 as well and did not live up to the standard he has set for himself.

Rohit Sharma: 9

585 runs @ 58.50, 100s: 1, 50s: 3

Rohit only made four fifty-plus scores in the tournament but his impact should not be measured by milestones. He had a strike rate of 125.26, the most among batters with at least 450 runs. He struck at 135 in the powerplay, playing his shots irrespective of conditions, giving his team the liberty to play according to the pitch conditions. He batted at a rate of over 150 in the final on a tough track, with his dismissal slowing down the innings drastically as the others struggled to adapt to the slow wicket.

Ishan Kishan: 4

47 runs @ 23.50, HS: 47

Kishan played the first two games after Gill was ruled out due to dengue. He was out for a duck in the first game before making a run-a-ball 47 against Afghanistan.

Virat Kohli: 9

765 runs @ 95.62. 100s: 3, 50s: 6

Kohli made at least 50 in nine of the 11 innings in the World Cup, capitalising on the starts given by Rohit in the powerplay. He anchored the innings, which allowed the batter at the other end to go after the bowling. He was criticised for his scoring rate on occasions, but it was the role given to him by the team.

Shreyas Iyer: 8

530 runs @ 66.25, 100s: 2, 50s: 3

Iyer started slowly with one fifty in the first six games but found his form thereafter, making 82, 77, 128* and 105. He was especially harsh against the spinners and ensured the team got off to a flourishing end, with a strike rate of 178.7 in the last ten overs of an innings. His 70-ball 105 in the semi-final was overshadowed by Kohli’s 50th ODI ton but it arguably was the game-changer.

KL Rahul: 8

452 runs @ 75.33, 100s: 1, 50s: 2

Rahul often dug deep, rescuing India when they were in a spot of bother. He started with an unbeaten 97 against Australia after India collapsed to 2-3 in the World Cup opener and played another crucial knock of 66 in the final, though his strike rate was under the scanner. His exceptional keeping and his calmness in advising when India should go for the DRS get an extra point.

Suryakumar Yadav: 2

106 runs @ 17.66, HS: 49

Arguably the biggest disappointment of the World Cup, Yadav failed to make the most of his chances that were thrown open after Hardik was injured. He played a crucial 49 against England on a slow track but would be disappointed by his 28-ball 18 in the final, where he failed to farm the strike and exposed the tail.

Hardik Pandya: 5.5

5 wickets @ 22.60, BBI: 2-34
8 runs, SR: 137.50

Pandya did not get many chances to bat in the four games he played and just bowled 16.3 overs. He got five wickets, picking two scalps each against Afghanistan and Pakistan, but he was also expensive, conceding 6.84 runs per over.

Shardul Thakur: 2

2 wickets @ 51, BBI: 1-31

Thakur had little role to play and was replaced by Shami after Hardik’s injury as India looked to increase their bowling depth.

R Ashwin: 6

1 wicket @ 34, BBI: 1-34

Ashwin, a surprise pick in the squad after Axar Patel’s injury, played only one game, against Australia in Chennai, and ended with an economy rate of 3.4.

Jasprit Bumrah: 9

20 wickets @ 18.65, BBI: 4-39

Bumrah was at his most lethal in the World Cup, producing two astonishing slower balls to Steve Smith and Mohammad Rizwan, both of which can be a contender for the ball of the tournament. He had a strike rate of just over four, which dropped to 3.25 in the powerplay and set up the games beautifully.

Mohammed Siraj: 5

14 wickets @ 33.50. BBI: 3-16

Siraj blew hot and cold in the competition and was guilty of leaking runs in the powerplay. He conceded 64 boundaries in the tournament and often eased the pressure Bumrah created at the other end.

Mohammed Shami: 9 

24 wickets @ 10.70, BBI: 7-57

Shami was phenomenal in the tournament, ending as the top wicket-taker, despite playing only seven games. He got three five-fors, including the best ODI figures by an Indian in the semi-final, where he claimed 7-57. However, he had his first off day in the final, lacking any sting.

Kuldeep Yadav: 7

15 wickets @ 28.26, BBI: 2-7 

Kuldeep had an economy rate of 4.45 and held the middle overs together, where he and Ravindra Jadeja kept the run rate in check.

Ravindra Jadeja: 8 

16 wickets @ 24.87, BBI: 5-33 

Jadeja was the second-highest wicket-taker among spinners in the World Cup, conceding 4.25 runs an over. He performed well in his limited chances with the bat, but India would have wanted him to dig in deeper in the final.
