Talking about Team India’s World Cup campaign so far, all three wins have been rather comprehensive. While India chased down Australia’s target of 200 with six wickets in hand and 52 balls remaining, they overhauled Afghanistan's target of 273 with eight wickets and 15 overs to spare.

India continued their dominance over Pakistan as they bundled out the arch-rivals for a below-par 191 and completed the chase in 30.3 overs with seven wickets left.
