And when it comes to World Cups, India have a 10-0 record over Pakistan who have never beaten the Men in Blue in a World Cup match, be it ODI or T20. So if you are done mourning about the team's loss to New Zealand in the opening game, take a look at the past World Cup battles where India prevailed.
