Republic Day Special: 5 Firsts by Indian Team In International Cricket! 2

Nowadays in ODI cricket, making a 400+ runs total is not an impossible task for a team. Even it has happened for 4 times in the Cricket World Cup. But the first team to score 400+ total in Cricket World Cup was India. In 2007 ICC Cricket World Cup, India had scored 413/5 against Bermuda (at Port of Spain on 19th march 2007), which was the first 400+ total by a team in Cricket World Cup. The previous best was 398/5 by Sri Lanka against Kenya (at Kandy on 6th march 1996).
