Tuktuk,
Zimbabwe made its world cup debut in 1983 which was won by India. Zimbabwe was a very weak and new team an as a result they failed to even come above the round one match. In fact they didn’t even win a single match in that world cup, as Australia, India and West Indies won all the matches against them (these four teams were in Group B)

Zimbabwe’s performance in the world cups has been of very poor show as they have by far played 7 world cups in which they have played 45 matches, and only managed to win 8 games out of 45 and lost 33 with 3 matches giving no results and 1 tied.

According to Test playing nations Zimbabwe’s performance in the world cup’s is very poor comparing the other Test playing nations. As of now the cricket in Zimbabwe is under tremendous pressure as they have big governmental problems in their country which makes Zimbabwe a bad country to live in hence cricket is suffering in Zimbabwe cricket (ZC).

In 1983 world up Zimbabwe made its debut.Zimbabwe, making its Cup debut, shocked an Australian side that was still trying to find its feet after the upheaval of the Packer era. Batting first, Zimbabwe made 239/6 in the alloted overs after being in big trouble at one point 94/5. Barring Kepler Wessels and Rodney Marsh, none of the other Australian batsmen came to the party, the team managing just 226/7 in the 60 overs. Duncan Fletcher, now coaching England, provided the star turn with an innings of 69 not out, followed by 4/42 in his 11 overs.

Well it was 1983 when Zimbabwe make it's debut in the worldcup.

However Zimbabwe, making its Cup debut in 1983 worldcup, shocked an Australian side that was
still trying to find its feet after the upheaval of the Packer era. Batting first, Zimbabwe made 239/6 in the alloted overs after being in big trouble at one point 94/5. Barring Kepler Wessels and Rodney Marsh, none of the other Australian batsmen came to the party, the team managing just 226/7 in the 60 overs. Duncan Fletcher, now coaching England, provided the star turn with an innings of 69 not out, followed by 4/42 in his 11 overs.

However in the 2nd round, Zimbabwe lose to India.
