When one streak ends, another begins. India beat Pakistan 13 times in a row in World Cup matches before Babar, Rizwan, Shaheen, and the rest, destroyed India and broke the streak.

I predict that this was a thrashing from which there is no easy return for India. Worst of all, unlike the thrashing they received during the 'Aaney Do' series, most of their players are young and will likely be around for several years. This defeat will live with them for the rest of their careers.

For now, it is Pakistan - 1, India 0.
 
Don't think so, same thing was said after CT 2017.
(Aane do is one series which I don't even count as a loss, cause if the other team plays three chuckers then it's very difficult to beat them.)

Actually I have a gut feeling that India will make it to the semis this year too
 
You can't reset the streak whenever you feel like.

It's 12-1 as things stand.

7-0 World Cups
5-1 World T20s

And if you want to include the Champion's Trophy, it becomes 13-3.

Can’t we just keep it simple and do H2H only?

What is it, 87-70 now? 😬
 
Nope. While today was an absolute mauling, I do not think this Indian team is the kind which will be cowed down by this. India got thrashed by Australia for just 36 in a much tougher format - Test cricket and bounced back - same in England.

I predict India to actually make a comeback in this World Cup.
 
I don't think we'll lose to Pakistan again for a while, so OP needs to go back to his personal commitments :)

That's not the definition of "streak, buddy. Streak just means when you lose several games in a row, so if Pakistan wins the next 3 wc match ups against India then it would be a 4-0 streak since India last won against Pak in a WC.
 
The definition of a streak is that it should be repetitive in nature. Atleast two consecutive wins are required to form a "streak".

The streak will start if Pakistan wins the next match they play against India too. Right now, it's an isolated win.

True. Streak will ended once its broken. You start from scratch. Right now its 1-0.
 
No chances Pakistan can sustain a streak, they are too emotional a team and play more with their heart rather than head. This could likely be a one-off.

Their game vs kiwis will be intersting.

Heard the same after 2017 CT final. Come back to ground for a while because this arrogance won't take you too far. We can meet again in the final. :inti

No need to get into these petty inconveniences.

The focus should be on creating a good atmosphere between fans and players of both teams.

Encouragement is needed to resume bilateral cricket, but I agree, that if Pakistan can continue this streak, it will only incentivize BCCI to host a series.
 
Pakistan and India have played 200 matches(all formats).Pakistan won 87,India won 70.The numerous of tied/drawn matches is 43.Pakistan lost match in WCs because the batting let us down.The bowlers performed well in most matches.The batting used to collapse even though India didn’t have a potent bowling attack.
 
These are self created stats. Real stat is 87-70.

And let’s not forget from late 1988 to late 1991 india did not win a single ODI Match v Pakistan.

And again from March 92- March 96.

And India did not win a single Test match v pakistan for 20 years.

1979-1999.

I wish if i could teach youngsters how to learn actual stats.

In my office, indians avoid discussion with me on stats.
 
The streak no one talks about

Pakistan 8-0 vs Lankans in ODI World cups
 
Pakistan is unlikely to win against India in an ODI World Cup for the foreseeable future. If the 2027 World Cup is indeed the last ODI World Cup, then India could maintain this streak in ODI WC indefinitely.

Sorry but it feels like you're a sore loser.

Obviously this WC streak/stat matters. If Pakistan had won tonight there would be a jashan in whole Pakistan for atleast next 6 months.

Sorry mate, but no Indian cares about bilateral series ans Sharjah cups that happened back in the 20th century. Pakistan has always bottled it against India in the biggest matches, during the digital era where the entire world's eyeballs are at you
