Pakistan’s thumping win against Australia in the second ODI not only helped them level the series at 1-1 but also helped them become the most successful Asian ODI team against the Aussies in their backyard.
The two arch-rivals were tied at 40 wins apiece before Pakistan’s triumph at Adelaide surged them ahead.
Pakistan got to the mark in 110 games while India holds the 40-win mark from 99 games. 18 of Pakistan’s ODI wins against Aussies have come in the bilateral series while the rest of their triumphs have been during ICC-sanctioned competitions.
West Indies remain the most successful team overall having won a staggering 75 ODIs on Australian soil followed by England in second.

| England | 53 | 124 |
