Australia has won 52 and lost 34 of the 91 ODIs it has played against India and has the best win-loss ratio for any visiting country in the format.

Against India in India, the record is almost even with 29 wins and 27 losses in 61 matches

In terms of series, Australia has won 5 of the 9 away bilateral series they have played against India – the best record for any opposition team by far.

But their biggest triumph in India was the maiden World Cup victory in 1987. They also won the Champions Trophy hosted by India in 2006.

The period from 1984 till 2009 was dominated by Australia. They won 4 of the 5 bilateral series in this period. They also won two tri-nation series and the 2006 Champions Trophy in this time-frame. But their most significant victory was in the 1987 World Cup.

The period from 1998 to 2009 was Australia’s golden period in their cricket history. Not only were they the best Test team in the world but also the undisputed world champions in ODI cricket – they won three consecutive World Cups from 1999 to 2007.

Australia had their worst year in ODI history in 2018 having won just 2 and losing 11 of the 13 matches they played in the year.

Their performance in 2017 was also quite poor (won 5 and lost 8).

However, there has been a resurgence since 2019.
