look at the final of the 20/20 world cup - went to last over.

australia v england only had one good ashes series in 2005; the next series aussies whooped them 5-0; so it isn't as consistent as pakistan v india, always exciting

Answer 9

Australia-England, because Aus is my country & England the home of some of my ancestors.

Answer 10

Probably IND-PAK match is better or maybe super. Every match we are able to watch between these two sides are exciting. Nobody can judge who will win the match until the last moment. Especially the INDO-PAK series will be thrilling. The two teams will be battling hard to win the series which will go down to the wire. I just simply love the tension on each and every player. AUS-ENG will also be a little fun to watch.

Answer 11

australia , england

Answer 12

I am a Pakistani and I don't enjoy watching Pak v.s. India matches any more than a normal match.

I enjoy Pakistan v.s. Australia and Pakistan v.s. South Africa.

It is against those teams I can see which Pakistani players are the best.

Answer 13

boy - how old are you - u should know that - more than the ashes - india Vs pakistan matchs are exciting to watch - and its proven from the TRP rating that - india - pak match is the most watch game...

Answer 14

Though Ashes series started as the most exciting cricket series

considering the one sided result of the series during the past few years, it has lost its rivalry. Presently India-Pakistan series are the most exciting..

1983

India 1983 World Cup Champions

In the 1983 Prudential Cup, two-time World Champions West Indies tumbled underdogs India out for 183 and were cruising on their way to a memorable victory at 2-57 before suffering a major collapse. They were annihilated by the Indian bowlers and reached 6-76 before providing some sort of resistance. They were all out for 140, India won by 43 runs. The heroes of the day were Mohinder Amarnath (3/12 and 26) and Kris Srikkanth (top scorer with 38).

India had also beaten West Indies in the group stages, by 34 runs at Old Trafford. In another Group B match between India and Zimbabwe at Tunbridge Wells, India were struggling at 17/5. Kapil Dev stepped in and hit a majestic 175 not out, which at that time was the highest individual score in a ODI.

The physical trophy won by the Indian cricket team was damaged during a violent rampage on the Indian cricket board's headquarters, carried out by a mob.

1992

Pakistan 1992 World Cup Champions

Imran and Javed Miandad shared a third-wicket partnership of 139 that set Pakistan back on the right track. And their innings finished with a flourish when Inzamam-ul-Haq scored 42 off 35 balls with Wasim Akram chipping in with a quickfire 33 off only 19. And Wasim was soon in the action with the ball, dismissing Ian Botham for a duck in the first over of England's innings. The left-armer's next wickets settled the match. When he clean bowled Allan Lamb and Chris Lewis in consecutive balls, England were 141 for six with the run-rate climbing.

In the group stage matches India beat Pakistan by 43 runs.

1999

Pakistan 1999 World Cup Runners-up

Pakistan, who had played exciting cricket throughout the tournament, never found their form when it mattered most and the match was over in less than four-and-a-half hours, the shortest final in World Cup history. Wasim Akram won the toss and elected to bat, but his decision back-fired and none of his batsmen ever got to grips with either the wicket or the bowlers. Steve Waugh's men were given the perfect start by Adam Gilchrist who reached his fifty off 33 balls and they needed only 121 balls to reach the 133 runs needed for victory.

In the Super Six stage India beat Pakistan by 47 runs.

Australia beat Pakistan by 8 Wickets

India 2003 World Cup Runners-up

In the 2003 finals, Australia dominated from the very start, achieving 105 runs in 14 overs before losing a single wicket. Ricky Ponting (140 from 121 balls), and Damien Martyn (88 from 84 balls) took Australia to an Australian record 359, a record that would not be beaten until 2006. India never stood a chance after Sachin Tendulkar lost his wicket for just 4. Virender Sehwag (82 from 81 balls, 10 fours, 3 sixes) and Rahul Dravid (47 from 57 balls, 2 fours) brought India to a respectable 234 in 39.2 overs, but the rest of middle order collapsed spectacularly and India were all out.

India, Pakistan & the World Cups

India's World Cup Victory in 1983

The 1983 Prudential World Cup in England was a turning point in the history of cricket and for the Indian Subcontinent. The West Indies, India, Australia, and the newcomers Zimbabwe contested the B group, and it got off to a rousing start when India with only one World cup win to this point beat the favourites, the West Indies, by 34 runs. They along with their neighbours, Pakistan, reached the semi-finals for the first time, bringing the spirit of the subcontinent into the world arena for the first time. Though Pakistan lost to West Indies, India beat the then world champions in the final to bring the trophy to Asia for the first time.

Binny with 18 (still a record for most wickets in a World Cup tournament), and Madan Lal with 17 wickets were their leading bowlers, and Kapil Dev topped the batting averages. Kapil's Kapil Dev 175* against Zimbabwe still remains one of the most astonishing comebacks in a cricket match.

Finals: India won by 43 runs

Score: INDIA 183 all out in 54.4 overs [Srikkanth 38(57 b, 7-4s 1-6); Roberts 3-32] Beat W INDIES 140 all out in 52 overs [IVA Richards 33(42 b, 7-4s); Madan Lal 3-31 Amarnath 3-12]

Pakistan's World Cup Victory in 1992

The 1987 World Cup in India and Pakistan was disastrous for both the countries as they lost in their semifinal matches held in their respective countries. Despite Australia's (the 1987 champions) failure to reach the final of the 1992 Benson & Hedges Cricket Championships, a record World Cup final crowd of more than 85,000 greeted Pakistan and England at the MCG.

Before the finals, a supreme effort from Inzamam-ul-Haq (60 off only 37 balls) aginst New Zealand secured Pakistan's place in the 1992 World Cup final. Pakistan's greatest moment in World Cup history came in 1992 with victory in Australia. After a slow start they built as a team over the course of the competition, winning as other more fancied opponents slipped by the wayside. They beat a tired and beleaguered England in the final with ease.

Finals: Pakistan won by 22 Runs

Score: PAKISTAN 249 for 6 Wickets in 50 overs [Imran Khan 72(110 b, 5-4s 1-6; Miandad 58(98 b, 4-4s); Derek Pringle 3-22] Beat ENGLAND 227 all out in 49.2 overs [Neil Fairbrother 62(70 b, 3-4s); Wasim Akram 3-49 Mushtaq Ahmed 3-41]
