Undoubtedly, strong Indian support meant that the team found motivation to make an improbable comeback in the match. There was a time in the match when to back their team, the crowd started chanting Vande Mataram. The result of it was for everyone to see, as eventually, the Indians lifted the trophy once again, after finishing third in the last edition.
