Till now we have seen many teams creating history by winning and by displaying their brilliant performances, but if someone wins, someone has to lose right? Sometimes we don’t get what we expect from any game or life, so let’s dive into the 5 Biggest Upsets in the History of Sports World.

1) Florida Panthers Beat Boston Bruins – First Round 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs

The Boston Bruins, entering the 2023 NHL playoffs as the #1 seed, had completed the greatest regular season in NHL history with an astonishing 65-12 record, amassing 135 points.

This historic performance set sky-high expectations for the team, which was stacked with experienced Stanley Cup champions and appeared poised to cap off their record-breaking season with a championship. However, in a stunning turn of events, they faced the #8 seeded Florida Panthers, who had a 42-32 record. Defying the odds, the Panthers pushed the series to a decisive Game 7.

In an outcome that few could have predicted, the Panthers triumphed in Game 7 at TD Garden, eliminating the Bruins and delivering one of the most shocking upsets in NHL playoff history.

This unexpected defeat is widely regarded as one of the biggest chokes in NHL history, as the Bruins’ remarkable regular season ended abruptly and prematurely against a lower-seeded opponent.

2) India Lost the Cricket World Cup Finals 2023

Ah! that pain. Not gonna lie, I mostly don’t watch the entirety of the matches as I am more of a highlights person. But this was one of the rare occasions where I almost watched the entire match live. India was at the top of their game this World Cup season by demolishing any team they faced.

This awakened the dream of many Indians that this might be the year to repeat the 2011 celebration. But it didn’t go that well.

The finals was against Australia who reached the top even when they struggled at the start of the tournament. But by the time they reached the top, they became stronger and stronger.

India batted first and was able to set a total of 240/10, which was not a great score and was tough to defend against Australia.

Australia’s opening pair David Warner and Travis Head we ready to chase but we got some early wickets in the form of David Warner, Mitchell March, and Steve Smith which boosted team India’s morale, but they still had to face the force which eventually broke the bowlers apart.

The partnership between Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne became the biggest obstacle for Indian bowlers where Travis Head scored a century (137 for 120) and set Australia at a stage of winning before leaving the ground.

Even after getting his wicket the chances of winning were too slim for team India and then Marnus Labuschagne gave the finishing blow which left many of the Indian cricket fans heartbroken.

This was one of the biggest upsets in the history of the sports world.
