India are one of the strongest teams in T20I cricket history. The Men in Blue were the first to capture the ICC T20 World Cup trophy. Playing under the captaincy of MS Dhoni, the Indian side stunned the world to finish as champions in the ICC T20 World Cup 2007.
Since then, the Men in Blue have been a force to reckon with in the shortest format of the game. They have a win record of more than 50% against almost all teams. There are six nations against whom the Men in Blue have never lost in T20Is. Here’s a list of those six nations.
