Team India is undefeated at Bristol's County Ground as they have won all 3 encounters they've been part of. The Men in Blue have beaten the likes of Kenya, Sri Lanka and England at Bristol's County cricket ground and it is fair to say the Indian contingent loves to play in this not-so massive stadium.

Sachin Tendulkar has some fond memories from Bristol as he once scored a brilliant century against Kenya at the 1999 Cricket World Cup. Sachin Tendulkar's score of 140* is the second highest individual score in all ODIs played till date at the ground.

Talking about that World Cup match against Kenya, Sachin Tendulkar wasn't the only Indian to hit a ton as Rahul Dravid too raised his bat following a commendable inning of 104*. The Wall was at his proficient best as he smoothly anchored the Indian innings

Team India isn't scheduled to play in Bristol in the upcoming ICC World Cup.


Not so pleasant record - Rose Bowl, Southampton

Ardent supporters of Indian cricket team will hate to hear this but Team India has never won at Rose Bowl. The Men in Blue have played twice in Southampton and have returned empty-handed on both occasions.

The Home nation holds a dominant record at this ground and they've been able to defeat India pretty comfortably on both the occasions. India's last match at Rose Bowl was back in 2011 when Alastair Cook led England's charge and helped them chase down India's total with ease.

Team Indian will be seen playing at Rose Bowl this term as they begin their World Cup campaign against South Africa on 5th June at Southampton's Rose Bowl stadium.

The Men in Blue will be seen in action again in the tournament as they are scheduled to face Afghanistan at the same ground.
