Speaking at a conclave in Delhi, Kapil said: "I get the feeling that Sri Lanka and Australia are the favourites to win the 2015 World Cup. India. New Zealand, I would say are the dark horses."
He also said about India-Pakistan matches during his playing days, “Everyone starts expecting from us, even the boy who delivers tea in the morning. Everyone says one thing: ‘don't lose.' Who wants to lose?”
“But then, when you face a 150 kmph ball all you think of is saving your life.” Took 25 years to understand we won the World Cup
Reflecting on India's first ever World Cup win, in 1983, which came under his leadership, he said: “It took my 25 years to understand we won the World Cup. Everyone said we were the better team. Now the media is saying so much, now i realise we won the World Cup.
“I remember picking up champagne from Clive's room. They had many of them. When we won the tradition is that you go to the losing team's dressing room. Windies thought they will win. We picked up we didn't say thank you, we say it now.”
