Pakistan = 7 wickets for 37 runs by Aaqib Javed at (venue) Sharjah in 1991 remains the best bowling with Imran Khan's 6 for 14 & Rana Naved-ul-Hasan's 6 for 27 at Jamshedpur.. a total of 10 Pakistan bowlers have recorded 5 wickets in an innings against India.

Biggest Victory margins
Another record dominated by Pakistan team. 159 run victory over India at Delhi in 2005 remains the biggest victory margin between the two teams, but more importantly - Pakistan have also beaten India by 143 runs(Jaipur, 1999), 134run (Toronto, 1998), 123 (Bangalore, 1999), 116, 106 and 104 runs. The biggest win for India over Pakistan is only 87, at Kochi 2005.. the 12th highest win margin between the sub-continent giant cricket teams.

smallest totals & victory margins
The very first encounter between these two - at Quetta back on 1st October 1978 was won by India by merely 4 runs. Pakistan have also beaten India by 4 runs at Sharjah once and that remains the lowest win margin. as I said earlier - there has been no tied match ever India-pakistan one day match!

Most Extras
Although Indian team'f fielding has been better than that of Pakistan for some years now - India conceeded 41 extras against arch-rivals at a Mohali game on 8th November 2007 - the maxmum ever. India have also give 39, 38 (thrice), 37(twice), 33(thrice) & 32 as extras in single innings. Pakistan most extra in one Indian batting innings is only 31 - 12th in the list!

Wicket-keeper's
hold an important significance in ever cricket match, but even more in Indo-pak matches cause players of both side understand each-other's language. Moin Khan was one such talk-a-tive wicketkeeper for Pakistan, who holds the record of most dismissals between the neighbouring countries - 58 catches + 13 stumpings = 71 total. For India, Nayan Mongia comes in second position with 29 scalps. Interestingly, Mongia once took 3 catches & effected 2 stumpings in one match at Toronto 1996 & those 5 dismissals in one innings is the best ever!

Compilation records :
Inzamam-ul-Haq has the most runs in India vs Pakistan matches, with 2403 from 67 matches. Sachin Tendulkar has made 64 appearances for his 2225 runs whereas Saeed Anwar comes at 3rd place with 2002 runs. In terms of highest average, Javed Miadad played 35 ODIs against India to make 1175 runs at 51.08 runs per innings.
Wasim Akram & Saqlain Mushtaq lead the most wickets records in Ind v Pak ODIs with 60 & 57 wickets respectively. Aaqib Javed is at 3rd position, so the best bowler for India against Pakistan has been Anil Kumble. He has 54 wickets. In terms of strike rate, Imran Khan took wickets at 22.25 a piece.
