Australia became the first nation to record 1,000 wins in all formats of cricket on Saturday with a 34-run success over India in Sydney.

Their second-Test triumph over the same opposition in December saw Australia move onto 999, but they had to wait to reach four figures.

Defeat in the Boxing Day Test at Melbourne and a draw in the final match of the series at the SCG meant the first ODI against India presented their next opportunity.

And they duly took it, India falling short in pursuit of 289 despite Rohit Sharma's superb 133, as Jhye Richardson claimed a career-best 4-26.

With thanks to Opta, we take a look at some of the numbers behind Australia's wins.
