#CricketInNumbers: Key statistics, records of Pakistan in the World Cup

The ICC World Cup 2019 will start from May 30 onwards, in England and Wales. Notably, Pakistan had crashed out of the quarter-final in the 2015 edition of the event. They were beaten by eventual winners Australia. Pakistan go into this year's World Cup as the dark horses. We look at the Pakistan cricket team's statistics and records in this coveted event.

Pakistan have been semi-finalists in four editions (1979, 1983, 1987 and 2011). Pakistan's best moment came in 1992, when Men in Green won the trophy under Imran Khan's leadership.

He also delivered the second best performance (5/23).
