A total of 107 one-day internationals were played during the calendar year 2005, including the seven Combined XI games. The year started with Tsunami [Images] relief fund match between a World XI and an Asian XI at Melbourne. Buoyed by the success of this match, ICC [Images] also granted official status (amid strong protests from statisticians the world over) to the three-match series between Asia XI and Africa XI in South Africa in August and between Australia and World XI in Australia in October. These matches, however, could not generate as much interest.
South Africa ended the year with 18 wins out of the 24 games they played this year- a winning percentage of 75. In fact they did not lose a single match in 20 consecutive matches at one stage and it was only towards the end of the year that their copybook was blotted when the five-match series against India ended in a 2-2 draw.
Australia, like in Test cricket, ended with most wins but second to South Africa in terms of winning percentage. Pakistan and India were ranked third and fourth respectively.
