The India national cricket team is one of the full members of the International Cricket Council (ICC), the governing body of cricket. There have been thirteen editions of the Cricket World Cup, a quadrennial event hosted by the ICC in the ODI format since 1975. India has participated in every edition of the Cricket World Cup since its introduction. India has won it twice in 1983 and 2011, and is amongst the only three teams to have won it more than once.

In the first two editions in 1975 and 1979, the Indian team captained by Srinivasaraghavan Venkataraghavan won only a single match and did not progress past the group stage. Kapil Dev led the India team in the third edition of the World Cup in 1983. India registered its first ever World Cup victories over West Indies, Australia and England cricket teams en route to the final. It won the World Cup for the first time after defeating the West Indies, who had won the inaugural two editions of the World Cup. India hosted its first World Cup in 1987, but could not defend the title and was eliminated in the semifinals. The Indian team was captained by Mohammad Azharuddin for the next three editions with the best result being reaching the semifinals in the 1996 edition, co-hosted by India.

The Indian side led by Sourav Ganguly reached its second World Cup final in 2003 and finished as runners-up. India was eliminated in the group stage in the next edition, having lost both the matches it played. In the 2011 edition co-hosted by India, the Indian team led by MS Dhoni progressed to the quarterfinals after four wins from six matches in the group stage. India defeated three-time defending champions Australia in the quarterfinals, before defeating the Sri Lanka cricket team in the finals to lift its second World Cup title. India won 14 of the 17 matches it played across the next two editions, but did not progress beyond the semifinals in both the tournaments. In the 2023 edition hosted exclusively by India, the Rohit Sharma-led Indian team did not lose a single match en route to the final. In the fourth final appearance at the World Cups, India lost to Australia and finished as runners-up for the second time.

Sachin Tendulkar is the leading run scorer for India with 2278 runs and holds the record for the most runs across World Cups. Mohammed Shami is the leading wicket taking bowler for India with 55 wickets. Virat Kohli holds the record for the most runs scored in a single edition of the World Cup with 765 runs in the 2023 World Cup. Rohit Sharma has scored seven centuries across World Cups with five in a single edition in 2019.

Summary

The 1975 Cricket World Cup was the inaugural edition of the tournament held in England in June 1975.[18] The format consisted of a group stage, in which each team played the other three teams in its group of four once and the top two teams advanced to the semifinals. India was placed in Group B along with England, New Zealand and East Africa.[19] The Indian team was led by Srinivas Venkataraghavan and was relatively inexperienced at ODI cricket, having played their first match only a year earlier during the tour of England in 1974.[17][20][21][22]

India played its first match against England at Lord's. Chasing a target of 334, India scored 132 runs in 60 overs and lost by a margin of 202 runs.[3] India won the next match against East Africa at Headingley in Leeds by ten wickets. After medium pacer Madan Lal took three wickets to restrict the East African team to a total of 120 runs, India chased the target without losing a single wicket with opener Sunil Gavaskar top-scoring with 65 runs from 86 balls.[23] India played its last group stage match against New Zealand at Old Trafford in Manchester. Batting first, India scored 230 runs with Syed Abid Ali top scoring with 70 runs from 98 balls. New Zealand chased the target with four wickets to spare with opener Glenn Turner scoring a century (114 not out from 177 balls).[24] India finished third in the group and failed to qualify for the next round as only the top two teams progressed to the semifinals.[19]

Summary

The 1992 Cricket World Cup was held in Australia and New Zealand.[59] A new format was introduced for the 1992 World Cup, with the group format scrapped in favour of a round-robin format. Each team played all the other eight teams in the tournament once and the top four teams at the end of the Round-Robin stage progressed to the semifinals.[60] It was also the first World Cup played with colored jerseys and which had day-night matches.[61]

India's first match in the tournament was against England at Perth. England won the match by nine runs after bowling India out for 227 runs while chasing a target of 237.[62] The second match against Sri Lanka at Mackay was abandoned due to rain after just two balls.[7] Srikkanth holds the unusual record of scoring the only run ever scored in international cricket at the Ray Mitchell Oval, in Mackay as the ground did not host any other international match.[63][64] In the third match against co-hosts and defending champions Australia at The Gabba in Brisbane, India lost by one run in a repeat of the result from the previous World Cup.[6] Chasing a revised target of 235 in a rain affected match, India were all out for 234 with Mohammed Azharuddin top scoring with 93 runs.[65] India next played Pakistan at Sydney, which was the first ever encounter between the teams in a World Cup.[66] India scored 216 runs in a match reduced to 49 overs due to rain with Sachin Tendulkar top-scoring with 54 runs and bowled out Pakistan for 173 runs to win by 43 runs.[67]

In the next match against Zimbabwe at Seddon Park in Hamilton, India won the rain-curtailed match by 55 runs.[7] India next played the West Indies at Basin Reserve in Wellington, in which West Indies chased a target of 195 with six overs to spare to beat India by five wickets.[7] India lost the final two matches against co-hosts New Zealand at Dunedin and World Cup debutants South Africa at Adelaide Oval.[7][68] In the earlier match, India scored 230 runs with half-centuries from Tendulkar and Azharuddin and the target was chased down by New Zealand.[69] Against South Africa, the match was reduced to 30 overs due to rain and India scored 180 runs with Azharuddin top scoring with 79 runs, but lost the match by six wickets.[70] With only two wins, India finished seventh amongst the nine teams in the group stage and failed to qualify for the semi-finals.[60] The tournament was won by Pakistan, one of the two teams beaten by India in the group stage.[7] India's highest scorer in the tournament was Azharuddin with 332 runs and amongst the bowlers, Manoj Prabhakar was the leading wicket taker with 12 wickets.[71][72]

Summary

The 1996 Cricket World Cup was co-hosted by India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.[73] The tournament went back to the group format which was last used in the 1987 edition. Each team played the other five teams in the six team group and the top four teams progressed to the quarterfinals.[74] In the group stage, India were placed in Group A with co-hosts Sri Lanka, Australia, West Indies, Zimbabwe and World Cup debutants Kenya.[68][60]

India started their campaign by defeating Kenya at Cuttack. India restricted Kenya to 199 runs with Anil Kumble taking three wickets and chased down the target to win by seven wickets with Tendulkar scoring a century (127 runs).[75] In the next match against the West Indies at Gwalior, India bowled out West Indies for 173 with Kumble and Prabhakar taking three wickets each. India chased down the target with five wickets to spare with Tendulkar again top scoring with 70 runs.[76] India lost the next match to Australia at Bombay, after being bowled out for 242 runs while chasing a target of 259 runs.[8] In the next match against Sri Lanka in Delhi, India scored 271 runs while batting first with Tendulkar hitting 137 runs, but lost after Sri Lanka chased it down with eight balls remaining.[77] India ended the group stage with a 40-run victory against Zimbabwe at Kanpur with Vinod Kambli top scoring for India with 106 runs.[8] With the win, India finished third in their group and qualified for the quarterfinals, setting up a match against Pakistan at Bangalore.[8][74]

In the quarter finals, India elected to bat after winning the toss and scored 287 runs with Sidhu top scoring with 93 runs. India then restricted Pakistan to 248 runs to complete the win and qualify for the semifinals.[78] In the semifinals at the Eden Gardens in Calcutta on 13 March 1996, India played Sri Lanka in a match which became notorious for poor crowd behavior. India asked Sri Lanka to bat first, who posted a total of 251/8. In reply, India who were at one stage at 98/1, lost seven wickets for 22 runs to slump to 120/8 in the 35th over, with still 132 runs required to win. At this point, sections of the crowd began rioting because of which the match referee Clive Lloyd decided to abandon the game and awarded the win to Sri Lanka.[79][80] Tendulkar scored 523 runs at an average of 87.16 and was the leading run scorer of the tournament.[81] Leg-spinner Kumble finished as the leading wicket taker in the tournament with 15 wickets at 18.73 apiece.[82]

Summary

The 2019 Cricket World Cup was co-hosted by England and Wales.[146][147] The round-robin format last used in the 1992 World Cup was used for this tournament, with each team playing all the other nine participating teams once and the top four teams then advancing to the semi-finals.[148][149]

India began their campaign with a win against South Africa at Southampton. Batting first, South Africa posted a score of 227 runs and India chased down the target for the loss of four wickets with Rohit scoring a century (122 runs).[150] India next played Australia at The Oval in which India scored 352 runs while batting first with Dhawan top scoring with 117 runs. Australia was bowled out for 316 runs with Bhuvneshwar Kumar taking three wickets and India won by 36 runs.[151] India's third match against New Zealand was abandoned without a ball being bowled due to rain.[152] In the next match, India beat Pakistan by 89 runs in a rain affected match at Manchester. India posted a total of 336 runs aided by a century from Rohit (140 runs) before Pakistan finished with 212 runs while chasing a revised target of 302 runs in 40 overs.[153][154] India then beat Afghanistan by 11 runs at Southampton. After scoring 224 runs while batting first, India restricted Afghanistan to 213 runs.[155] Shami took a hat-trick in the match, which was only the second such instance by an Indian bowler in a World Cup since Chetan Sharma in 1987.[156] India won the next match against West Indies by 125 runs. India scored 268 runs batting first and then bowled out West Indies for 143 runs with Shami taking four wickets.[157]

India's first loss in the 2019 World Cup came against hosts England at Edgbaston. England posted a score of 337 runs in 50 overs and chasing 338 to win, India ended their innings at 306 runs to lose by 31 runs.[158] In the next match against Bangladesh two days later, India score 314 runs with Rohit scoring his fourth century in the tournament. Bangladesh was bowled out for 286 with Jasprit Bumrah taking four wickets to help India win by 28 runs.[159] India ended the round robin stage with a seven wicket win over Sri Lanka at Leeds. Batting first, Sri Lanka scored 264 runs in 50 overs and India chased down the target with both openers Rohit (103 runs) and Rahul (111 runs) scoring centuries.[160][161] Rohit's century was his fifth in the tournament, making him the first ever batsman to hit five centuries in a single Cricket World Cup.[162] India topped the round robin stage with seven wins and qualified for the semifinals.[163][164]

In the semifinals, India played with New Zealand at Old Trafford in a rain affected match, spread over two days. New Zealand batted first and was restricted to a score of 239 runs in 50 overs. India's score read five runs for the loss of three wickets in the fourth over and India was six wickets down before reaching a total of 100 runs. Though half-centuries by Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja bought India closer to the target, India was bowled out for 221 runs to lose by 18 runs.[165] As a result, India crashed out of the 2019 Cricket World Cup, the second consecutive Cricket World Cup in which they went out in the semifinal stage.[1] Rohit ended the tournament as the highest scorer with 648 runs.[146] Bumrah was the highest wicket-taker for India with 18 wickets, placing him in joint fourth place.[166]
