Currently, Indore might be an extremely happy hunting ground for the Men in Blue having won all the five games which have been held there.

However, this was not the case with the Nehru Stadium which was used for almost two decades between 1983 and 2001.

They lost three matches on the trot between 1983 and 1987 to West Indies, Australia, and Pakistan respectively. Interestingly, all the three matches were affected by rain and India batted first in all of them.

India got their first win in the stadium against New Zealand in 1988 and followed that up with a mouth-watering tied match against Zimbabwe in 1993.

They achieved their second win in 2001 against Australia which turned out to be the final ODI held in that stadium.
