Perhaps India's greatest triumph in sports history, the 1983 World Cup still invokes jubilation in every Indian's mind. Twenty-five years ago, Kapil Dev's devils pulled off one of the greatest wins, against the mighty West Indies at Lord's, to script a remarkable day for Indian cricket. Hailed as the underdogs, India beat England in the semifinals and then went on to lift the trophy on June 25, 1983. Send in your wishes to members of that Indian team.
