45 World Cup wickets for Mohammed Shami in 14 innings, the most for an Indian bowler, surpassing the 44 wickets by Javagal Srinath and Zaheer Khan.

4 Five-wicket hauls by Shami in ODIs, the most for India in the format, going past Srinath and Harbhajan Singh, who have three five-fors each.

3 Five-wicket hauls for Shami at the ODI World Cup, the joint-most with Mitchell Starc.

7 Hauls of four or more wickets for Shami in ODI World Cups, the most by any bowler.

55 Sri Lanka's total against India in Mumbai is the fourth lowest in the men's ODI World Cup. It is also the lowest for a Full-Member nation, with Bangladesh's 58 against West Indies in 2011 being the previous lowest.

302 The margin of India's win is the second largest by runs in the men's ODI World Cup, behind Australia's 309-run win against the Netherlands last week. This is the fourth 300-plus runs win in men's ODIs and all four matches have occurred this year.

4 Instances of Sri Lanka getting bowled out for less than 100 in 2023, the most for a team in a year in men's ODIs. Three of those four came against India, also the most for a team in a year against an opponent.

5.31 Mohammed Siraj's bowling average in the first ten overs against Sri Lanka in ODIs. Siraj has taken 16 wickets for 85 runs in the first ten overs in six ODIs against Sri Lanka.

3 Indian batters with higher scores in the match than Sri Lanka's total of 55. It is only the third instance of three batters outscoring the opponent in a men's ODI. Matthew Hayden (88), Andrew Symonds (59) and Darren Lehmann (50*) outscored Namibia (45 all out) in the 2003 World Cup, while Hashim Amla (112), Jacques Kallis (72) and AB de Villiers (52) scored more than Sri Lanka (43 all out) in Paarl in 2012.

2 Runs by Sri Lanka's top-five batters, the fewest in a men's ODI innings.

29 Sri Lanka's total at the fall of the eighth wicket - the fourth-lowest total at which a team has lost the eighth wicket in men's ODIs, and the lowest at the World Cup.
