The Kiwis may never have won the World Cup, but their performances at the big stage have been admired by the ardent cricket followers. New Zealand have reached the semi-finals on seven occasions but have a disheartening success rate in the last-four stage as they have managed to reach the final only once.

Many might argue about New Zealand's ability to win the cup, but as far as their record at the World Cup is put into question, there is just one thing to describe it which is 'phenomenal'.

The Black Caps have played in 79 World Cup fixtures, out of which they have managed to win 48, which places them in the second position of this illustrious list.

New Zealand may not have won the cup, but with 48 wins under their belt, they have been one of the most consistent sides in the history of the tournament.
