As such, India have gone unbeaten for 10 matches in the ODI World Cup. Notably, their last defeat came way back in the 2019 ODI World Cup semifinal game against New Zealand.
Following an impressive series of performances, India beat New Zealand by a 70-run margin on November 15.

Mohammed Shami also put out an impressive 7-wicket haul to seal India’s spot in the ICC World Cup 2023 final.
Record for the longest unbeaten streak in ODI World Cup history
Team Australia currently holds the record for the longest unbeaten streak in ODI World Cup history. The Aussies hold the record with a whopping unbeaten streak of 34 matches. Out of those 34 matches, the team recorded 32 wins, one tie, and had one match end in a ‘No Result’ after it got washed out due to rain. Team Australia set the record after managing to go unbeaten across four World Cup editions, starting from 1999 to 2011. However, their unbeaten streak finally came to a stop when Pakistan beat them in the 2011 ODI World Cup. Notably, Australia have won the 1999, 2003, and 2007 editions of the ODI World Cup trophies during that timeframe.
