No. The closest game was Ireland vs Zimbabwe and the next closest was Sri Lanka vs South Arica which ended in a tie.

No. The closest game in the 2007 world cup was the match between Zimbawe and Ireland, which ended in a tie. The next closest game was between South Africa and Sri Lanka, which South Africa won by 1 wicket.

This is the narrowest victory by runs so far in this year's competition. However, there have been two closer victories in previous World Cups:
- In 1987, Australia (270/6 from 50 ov) beat India (269/10 from 49.5 ov) by 1 run in the Group Stage; and
- In 1991, Australia (237/9 from 50 ov) beat India (234/10 from 47 ov) by 1 run, again in the Group Stage (revised target due to rain).
There have also been numerous instances of a side winning by one wicket.
Out of interest, there have also been three matches which have ended in a tie:
- In 1999, Australia (213/10 from 49.2 ov) tied with South Africa (213/10 from 49.4 ov) in the Semi-Finals (Australia advanced to the Final);
- In 2003, Sri Lanka (268/9 from 50 ov) tied with South Africa (229/6 from 45 ov) in the Group Stage (by Duckworth/Lewis), a result which meant the hosts failed to qualify for the Super Six; and
- In 2007, Ireland (221/9 from 50 ov) tied with Zimbabwe (221/10 from 50 ov).
