Top Ten Half Century (Fifty) Scorers in ODI Cricket-All Time
One day cricket is the shorter format of the game but not the shortest one. But it has been played for many years and many countries have participated in one day internationals. The most successful country in one day internationals is Australia because it has won four mega events of this format. This mega event is known as World Cup.
Some other countries like West Iindies, Pakistan, India, and Sri Lanka have also won the mega event. But they were not able to do it consistently. Many records are made in one day internationals by teams and individuals, but some of them are very special regarding number of balls being faced and the strike rate are concerned.
