Explanation

Sri Lanka won a default victory over India in the 1996 World Cup semi-final when the Indian team, struggling at 120/8 in reply to Sri Lanka's 251/6, conceded the match due to crowd disturbance and rioting at the Eden Gardens stadium in Kolkata. The match was awarded to Sri Lanka by default. None of the other teams listed won against India via default.
