5 Number
of times India have won the second game after losing the first game of a
bilateral ODI series at home out of last six series. The only time India failed
to do so in recent times was against Pakistan in 2013.
67 Number of times MS Dhoni has remained unbeaten in an ODI –
same as that of Australia’s Michael Bevan. Now only Shaun Pollock and Chaminda
Vaas (72 each) are ahead of Dhoni.
100 The
match was Dhoni’s milestone match at home. His tally also includes three
matches played for Asia XI.
2 Number of times Dhoni has scored 90+ runs and effected 4
dismissals in the same ODI. Kumar Sangakkara is the only other wicketkeeper to
perform this feat more than once.
4 Number of times an Indian wicketkeeper has scored a fifty
and effected four dismissals in the same ODI.
Three of those instances belong to Dhoni, while Parthiv Patel featured
in the remaining one.
12 Number
of consecutive ODI innings Virat Kohli has now played without scoring a fifty.
He never had a sequence of more than 7 innings without a fifty previously.
3 Number
of consecutive ODIs Dhoni had lost against South Africa at home before winning
this one. Believe it or not, this is Dhoni’s longest losing streak against a
particular opponent at home (along with a streak of 3 matches against
Australia).
100 Percent
– India’s winning record at Indore’s Holkar Cricket Stadium – four wins in four
games!
