Highest partnership for each wicket by Indian batsmen in World Cup history

4 - 142 by Vinod Kambli and Navjot Sidhu against Zimbabwe at Kanpur, 1996

Sidhu played a big role in India's success in the 1996 World Cup

In the Group B game against Zimbabwe, India was asked to bat first at Kanpur and they shortly found themselves in trouble at 32 for 3. However, opening batsman Navjot Sidhu was still there and he was joined by the number 5 - Vinod Kambli. The two started the recovery effort and eventually put together the highest fourth-wicket partnership for India in World Cup history.

The partnership had grown to 142 when Sidhu was dismissed for 80 (116 balls, 5 fours) but Kambli went on to score a sublime 106 (110 balls, 11 fours). India scored 247 in their 50 overs and that proved to be enough as the bowlers did the job for them as they won the match by 40 runs.
