Pakistan's victory by 143 runs against India in the Jaipur match on Wednesday was their biggest win over India to date in LOI matches. The previous worst Indian defeat against their arch rivals in terms of runs was by 134 runs when they were beaten in the Sahara Cup last year.

Overall, this was Pakistan's fourth biggest win. Their biggest win ever was against Sri Lanka by 192 runs in the first (Prudential) World Cup 24 years ago. Just for the record, this was India's third biggest defeat in LOI cricket, their worst defeat ever was at the hands of England (by 202 runs) in the same World Cup of 1975.
