10 The number of consecutive victories for India in its recent T20I games. Its current unbeaten run is just two short of its record of 12 straight wins. Interestingly, Team India’s (the current World Cup champion) recent form has been so good that it has lost just one game in its last 23 matches. Its only loss occurred in Harare to Zimbabwe on 6 Jul 2024, which was its first match after winning the World title in the Caribbean.
