List of all ICC tournaments won by senior men’s Indian Cricket Team:

1. ICC Cricket World Cup 1983

Team India started the tournament brilliantly under Kapil Dev, beating defending champions West Indies in their first game. But they lost two out of their next three matches, which put them in a must-win situation. Then, in a must-win game, India were 17/5 against Zimbabwe when Kapil played one of the most iconic World Cup innings of 175* runs off 138 balls and helped India win the game.

That win gave India huge confidence. In the final, they beat West Indies for the second time in the tournament and lifted their maiden ICC title. They also became only the second nation to win the ICC Cricket World Cup as West Indies had won the first two editions.

2. ICC Champions Trophy 2002

They beat South Africa in the semi-final by 8 wickets. India faced Sri Lanka in the final. However, the scheduled day of the final was a washout, and the game went to reserve day. The reserve day was also washout out and a result could not be achieved. Hence, both India and Sri Lanka were announced as joint-winners. Virender Sehwag (271) scored most runs for India in the tournament.

3. ICC T20 World Cup 2007

India registered consecutive wins against England and South Africa to make it into the semis. In the semi-final, Yuvraj Singh blew Australia away. The final against Pakistan had a tense finish in the last over, but India held their nerves to win it by five runs and lift the title.

4. ICC Cricket World Cup 2011

The next ICC title for India came in 2011 when MS Dhoni led his side to the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 trophy at home. India were favourites going into the tournament, but that only added more pressure. They lost only one game in the tournament, against South Africa and their encounter against England ended in a tie.

In the final, India edged past Sri Lanka by six wickets, with MS Dhoni finishing the game with a six and bringing joy to the nation.

The final was a close contest against England, but India kept their nerves and won by only five runs while defending 129 in 20 overs (the match was shortened to a 20-over contest due to rain). Shikhar Dhawan won the Player of the Series award for scoring the most runs (363).
