Greatest Cricket World Cup Upsets

[manijone]

The biggest upset in cricket happens when a minnow team defeats the top 6 nations in cricket. In the biggest upsets of the World Cup history , most of the times India has been on the receiving end. The loss against Zimbabwe by 3 runs in 1999 and the loss in 1996 at Eden Gardens against Sri Lanka where it’s hard to forget the disgraceful hooliganism that led to match-referee Clive Lloyd awarding the match to the Sri Lanka .
