India And England World Cup History Indicates Equality
England World Cup: As India and England took each other on in the 2023 Cricket World Cup, they had crossed swords eight times since the inaugural Cricket World Cup in 1975. The win:loss ratio between them stood at 4:4.
In the first encounter at Lord's, London in 1975, England thrashed India, then quite unaccustomed to limited overs cricket, whereas the English, who invented the format, were endowed with a decade of experience in inter-county competitions.
Kapil Dev's Indians, however, surprised the tournament hosts at Old Trafford, Manchester in 1983 in the semifinal en route to upsetting the West Indies in the final and the title.
