Result records[edit]
A ODI match is won when one side has scored more runs than the total runs scored by the opposing side during their innings. If both sides have completed their allocated innings and the side that fielded last has the higher number of runs, it is known as a win by runs. This indicates the number of runs that they had scored more than the opposing side. If the side batting last wins the match, it is known as a win by wickets, indicating the number of wickets that were still to fall.[51]
Greatest win margins (by runs)[edit]

The greatest winning margin by runs in ODI cricket was India's victory over Sri Lanka at the Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram in January 2023 where the hosts won by a margin of 317 runs.[54] This eclipsed New Zealand's victory over Ireland by 290 runs during the 2008 Associates Tri-Series in Scotland.[55] The next largest victory was Australia's defeat of Afghanistan during the 2015 World Cup by 275 runs.[56]

A tie can occur when the scores of both teams are equal at the conclusion of play, provided that the side batting last has completed their innings.[51] As of December 2022[update], there have made 42 matches have ended in a tie in ODI cricket history, with nine involving Australia.[80][76] The most recent match was against the West Indies at the Arnos Vale Stadium in March 2012. The West Indies required one run for victory from the final three deliveries of the bowling of Brett Lee, but when the captain Daren Sammy was run out this left both teams unable to be split with 220 runs each.[81]
There was one match involving Australia when a tie-breaker was used after the scores were level. In the only ODI match played against Pakistan during the 1988–89 tour, both teams finished with 229 runs in the 45-over match. Pakistan was declared winner though due to loss of one fewer wicket.[82][83]

Best figures in an innings[edit]
Bowling figures refers to the number of the wickets a bowler has taken and the number of runs conceded.[112]
No bowler in the history of ODI cricket has taken all 10 wickets in an innings. The closest to do so was Sri Lankan fast bowler Chaminda Vaas. In the opening match of the 2001 LG Abans Triangular Series between Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe at the Singhalese Sports Club Cricket Ground in Colombo, Vaas took 8/19. Pakistani Shahid Afridi, who returned figured of 7/12 against the West Indies at Providence Stadium in Guyana in July 2013, sits behind Vaas. Australia's undefeated run during the 2003 Cricket World Cup saw Glenn McGrath take 7/15 against in Namibia and Andy Bichel 7/20 against England for the third and fifth best in ODI history. These performances broke the long-standing Australian record of Gary Gilmour's 6/14 set during the semi-final of 1975 Cricket World Cup against England.[113]

Wicket-keeping records[edit]
The wicket-keeper is a specialist fielder who stands behind the stumps being guarded by the batsman on strike and is the only member of the fielding side allowed to wear gloves and leg pads.[129]
Most career dismissals[edit]
A wicket-keeper can be credited with the dismissal of a batsman in two ways, caught or stumped. A fair catch is taken when the ball is caught fully within the field of play without it bouncing after the ball has touched the striker's bat or glove holding the bat,[130][131] while a stumping occurs when the wicket-keeper puts down the wicket while the batsman is out of his ground and not attempting a run.[132]
Australia's Adam Gilchrist is second only Sri Lanka's Kumar Sangakkara is taking most dismissals in ODI cricket as a designated wicket-keeper, with Sangakkara taking 482 to Gilchrist 472.[lower-alpha 10][134]

Fielding records[edit]
Most career catches[edit]
Caught is one of the nine methods a batsman can be dismissed in cricket.[lower-alpha 12] A fair catch is defined as a fielder catching the ball, from a legal delivery, fully within the field of play without it bouncing when the ball has touched the striker's bat or glove holding the bat.[130][131] The majority of catches are caught in the slips, located behind the batsman, next to the wicket-keeper, on the off side of the field. Most slip fielders are top order batsmen.[143][144]
Sri Lanka's Mahela Jayawardene holds the record for the most catches in ODI cricket by a non-wicket-keeper with 218. He is followed former Australian captain Ricky Ponting who secured 160 catches in his ODI career.[lower-alpha 13][146]

Partnership records[edit]

In cricket, two batsmen are always present at the crease batting together in a partnership. This partnership will continue until one of them is dismissed, retires or the innings comes to a close.
Highest partnerships by wicket[edit]
A wicket partnership describes the number of runs scored before each wicket falls. The first wicket partnership is between the opening batsmen and continues until the first wicket falls. The second wicket partnership then commences between the not out batsman and the number three batsman. This partnership continues until the second wicket falls. The third wicket partnership then commences between the not out batsman and the new batsman. This continues down to the tenth wicket partnership. When the tenth wicket has fallen, there is no batsman left to partner so the innings is closed.
Australian batsmen current don't hold any ODI wicket partnerships records, as of December 2022[update].[164] However, the eighth wicket partnership of 119 by the pairing of Paul Reiffel and Shane Warne in 1994 against South Africa was an ODI wicket partnership record at the time of posting.[165]
Highest partnerships by runs[edit]
The highest ODI partnership by runs for any wicket is held by the West Indian pairing of Chris Gayle and Marlon Samuels who put together a second wicket partnership of 372 runs during the 2015 Cricket World Cup against Zimbabwe. Fellow West Indians John Campbell and Shai Hope sit in second with their 365 for the opening stand against Ireland in 2019. India's Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid hold the third-highest ODI partnership with 331 made in 1999 against New Zealand. The final ODI against Pakistan in 2017 saw openers David Warner and Travis Head make 284, Australia's highest ODI partnership.[167]
