The Indian cricket team created history on Sunday (February 06) as the Men in Blue became the first side in the world to complete the milestone of 1,000 ODIs. As Rohit Sharma & Co. took the field in the first ODI against West Indies at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday, India became the first team to play 1000 ODIs.
One of the most successful teams in the world, India have been a force to reckon with across formats over the years in international cricket. The team has two ODI World Cups and a T20 World Cup to their name beside other major trophies and achievements at the highest level.
India have 518 wins in the 999 ODI matches that they have played so far. The team has lost a total of 431 matches in the ODI format while nine matches have ended in a tie and 41 without a result. Rohit Sharma, who is now India's full-time captain in white-ball cricket, is leading the Indian team in their milestone 1000th ODI appearance.
Incidentally, this will also be Rohit's first ODI game as full-time skipper of India in limited-overs cricket.
Australia have the second most, 958 ODI matches so far.
