From their first clash in the 1992 World Cup to the last edition in England, India stayed unbeaten against Pakistan. The only exception was in 2007 when both teams failed to collide due to their early exit from the tournament.
The last 50-over World Cup encounter between India and Pakistan was in 2019 at Old Trafford. Rohit Sharma’s stunning 140 off 113 balls navigated India to put a mammoth total of 336/5. In response, Pakistan could only manage 212/6 in a rain-affected match, resulting in an 89-run victory for India (DLS method).
The 2011 World Cup clash remains as one of the most memorable encounters between the two teams. In a thrilling semi-final match in Mohali, Sachin Tendulkar starred with 85 runs, and India’s bowlers put up a united front to secure a 29-run victory by bowling out Pakistan.

This trend continued even in the T20 World Cups. India maintained a successive winning streak against Pakistan until the Men in Green broke it in 2021. Shaheen Shah Afridi, Babar Azam, and Rizwan finally managed to shatter the jinx. However, India reclaimed their dominance with a thrilling victory in the 2022 edition, thanks to a remarkable performance by Virat Kohli.
With Pakistan breaking the jinx in the T20 World Cup, they will be eager to replicate their success in the 50-over format on October 14. Cricket fans barged online and offline, and the massive traffic crashed the servers and sites. The match tickets sold out in no time as fans across territories wanted to witness it live. The atmosphere at the Narendra Modi Stadium will turn jubilant when 132,000 viewers ravel match excitement. This world’s largest stadium also hosts the final of the World Cup on November 19.
While team India looks to continue their dominance, Babar Azam-led Pakistan will fight hard for redemption. The Pakistan skipper is on the top spot of the ODI players list and holds the highest number of runs in One Day Internationals since the conclusion of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2019. He is constantly making record-breaking achievements in the 50-over format. Babar scored nine impressive centuries since Pakistan exited from the 2019 World Cup. He has accumulated a total of 2196 runs since then, with an average of 66.5. The only player closest to challenging Babar’s significant tally is Shubman Gill, an emerging star from India. Gill is ranked as the second-best ODI batter in the world and has scored 1901 runs since the last World Cup, with an imposing average of 70.4.
