Team India hasn’t lost a single match at the Adelaide Oval in the past 17 years, which is a remarkable record that spans across tri-series games, ODI series, and even World Cup clashes.
India has consistently outperformed every opponent at this iconic venue. One of the most memorable moments came during the 2015 World Cup, when India defeated Pakistan by 76 runs.
Another unforgettable match was in 2019, when India successfully chased down 299 runs against Australia, powered by Virat Kohli’s brilliant 107 and MS Dhoni’s composed 55, further cementing their dominance at Adelaide Oval. For nearly two decades, this ground has truly been India’s fortress in Australia.
