Explanation

India scored 183 runs in the 1983 Cricket World Cup final against the West Indies. This was a modest total but proved defendable due to brilliant bowling and fielding. Kris Srikkanth top-scored with 38 runs. The West Indies, chasing 184, were bowled out for 140, giving India a historic 43-run victory. This low-scoring final is remembered for India's underdog triumph rather than high run totals.
