Note : Only completed innings have been taken into consideration |
- When Amay Khurasiya and Virender Shewag opened the Indian innings it was the fourth opening combination for India in this tournament and fifth in last five matches. India opened with Ganguly and Tendulkar in the final of Coca Cola Cup at Harare on July 7,2001. With injured Tendulkar out of the team,Yuvraj Singh and Ganguly opened the innings in India's first league match in this tournament against New Zealand on July 20. Ganguly then chose to bat in the middle order in the next match against Sri Lanka on July 22 and Amay Khurasiya and Yuvraj opened the innings. When India played against New Zealand on July 26, Ganguly decided to return to his regular position and opened the innings with Virender Shewag making it five opening combinations in five matches !! .However this is not an Indian record. India played with different opening combinations in seven consecutive matches from January 18,1981 to June 2,1982 and from October 3,1984 to December 27,1984.
