Australia have also notably featured in 8 finals of the total 13 World Cups, including the four in a row (1996 to 2007). The furthest a non-Test playing nation has ever reached is the semi-finals, achieved by Kenya in the 2003 tournament.
India is the first host country to have won the world cup on the home ground in 2011. In 2015 Australia became the second host country to win the world cup. The only other host to reach a Final was England in the second tournament in 1979.
