10 ODI records that may never be broken

 7. Most number of consecutive wins in the Cricket World Cup (Australia)

The 1990s and late 2000s was the era of Aussies. The mighty Australian side lead by Steve Waugh and Ricky Ponting dominated World Cricket and were able to clinch the World Cup in 1999, 2003, and 2007. The team also enjoyed a run of the most consecutive victories in the World Cup for over 25 games from 1999 to 2001.

The streak started after their World Cup victory over Pakistan when they defeated Wasim Akram’s side by 8 wickets to lift the trophy. Following that victory, the Australian team dominated the most important event in world cricket. However, the team lost its winning streak during the 2011 Cricket World Cup.

The team has continued its winning streak by defeating Zimbabwe and New Zealand in the first two matches, however, their match against Sri Lanka was abandoned due to rain. Later on, they lost against Pakistan during a group stage match and it became the very first time that Australia were defeated in a world cup match after their 1999 World Cup victory.

A winning streak of 25 games highlights the quality of the Australian lineup. With the modern era witnessing close matches and major upsets, this record is unlikely to be broken.
