It's definitely not just recency bias. It was a once in a generation team that went into a final with an undefeated 11 game streak. It also not just the loss, but the margin with which they lost was pretty dreadful. Not sure how intact this team will be by 2027, but hopefully at least some of these players will win a world cup in their career once.

the only 3 players in danger of not making it to 2027 are Rohit, Shami and Jadeja. I think we already kind of have Jadeja's replacement but it would be great if he can make it himself.
We do need Shami though, especially in South Africa. And we need Rohit - he's the Indian Goat Captain for ICC events.
And, most of all, we need a FIT Bumrah. Its easy to forget we did not have Bumrah in CT - did not need him in Dubai, but we will need him in South Africa.
