Stats: Runs galore, Australia's record victory, and Bas de Leede's unwanted feat

8 Number of 350-plus totals recorded in this World Cup until the first 29 games is the highest for any men's ODI series or tournament, surpassing the seven in the 2015 World Cup. Three of those eight in 2023 are by Australia, and all in consecutive games, making them the first team with three successive 350-plus totals in men's ODI history.

428 for 5 South Africa's total against Sri Lanka in Delhi is the highest at the men's ODI World Cup, bettering Australia's 417 for 6 against Afghanistan in 2015. The 400-run mark was a close miss on two more instances in the ongoing edition - 399 for 7 by South Africa against England, and 399 for 8 by Australia against Netherlands.

771 Runs collectively scored by Australia and New Zealand in Dharamsala, making it the highest aggregate for a men's ODI World Cup game. This record was broken twice in 2023, as South Africa and Sri Lanka aggregated 754 in Delhi to surpass the 714 by Australia and Bangladesh at Trent Bridge in 2019.

345 Target that Pakistan chased down against Sri Lanka in Hyderabad is the highest successful chase in the men's ODI World Cup, a record previously held by Ireland with their 328-run chase against England in 2011.

Pakistan's score was also the highest total while chasing - successful or unsuccessful - at the men's ODI World Cup, until New Zealand bettered it with 383 for 9 against Australia in Dharamsala, but fell six short of the target.

309 Margin of Australia's win by runs against Netherlands in Delhi. It is the first instance of a team winning a men's ODI World Cup game by a margin of 300-plus runs. It is also the second-biggest win in men's ODIs, behind only India's 317-run win against Sri Lanka earlier this year.

50 Balls needed for Kevin O'Brien for his century against England in 2011, the fastest in men's ODI World Cup until the 2023 edition. His record was bettered twice in the tournament - first by Aiden Markram with a 49-ball hundred against Sri Lanka, and then by Glenn Maxwell, who got a century off 40 balls at the same venue against Netherlands. Six of the top ten fastest ODI World Cup hundreds have come in this edition itself.

115 Runs conceded by Bas de Leede in ten overs against Australia. These are the most runs conceded by a bowler in a men's ODI innings, surpassing the 113 by two Australians - Mick Lewis in 2006 and Adam Zampa in 2023, both against South Africa. The 115 runs conceded by de Leede are also the most-ever conceded in an innings in men's List A cricket, going past 114 by Arunachal Pradesh's Chetan Anand against Tamil Nadu last year.

1 South Africa became the first team to have three centurions in the same World Cup game, a feat they achieved against Sri Lanka when Quinton de Kock (100), Rassie van der Dussen (108) and Markram (106) bagged tons. There have been only three previous instances of three centurions in a men's ODI innings, two of which were by South Africa.

4 Centuries scored during the match between Pakistan and Sri Lanka in Hyderabad - Kusal Mendis, Sadeera Samarawickrama, Abdullah Shafique and Mohammad Rizwan. It was the first World Cup match to feature four centurions, and only the third ODI ever.

1 Maxwell became the first batter to score a century in men's ODIs while coming in to bat after the 39th over. He came to the crease at the start of the 40th over against Netherlands, and went on to score a 40-ball hundred. The previous latest entry for any batter to score a century was 38.4 overs for AB de Villiers when he got a 31-ball ton against West Indies in 2015.

174 de Kock's score against Bangladesh in Mumbai is the first 150-plus score by a wicketkeeper in a men's ODI World Cup match. The previous highest was 149 by Adam Gilchrist against Sri Lanka in the 2007 final.

130 Partnership between Sybrand Engelbrecht and Logan van Beek for the seventh wicket against Sri Lanka in Lucknow. It is the highest stand for the seventh or lower wicket in the men's ODI World Cup. The previous highest seventh-wicket partnership was 116 between MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja against New Zealand in 2019.

380 Sixes hit across the 29 matches played so far. These are the second-most sixes in a men's ODI World Cup, behind only the 463 maximums hit across 48 matches during the 2015 edition.

23 Hundreds scored so far, the fourth highest among the 13 men's ODI World Cup editions. It is now only one behind the 24 tons in 2011, and trails the previous edition in 2019 by seven. However, the 2023 event still needs 16 hundreds to overtake the record tally of 38 in 2015.
