I agree with you rankings here, apart from the fact that I believe England should be at number 5 instead of Sri Lanka.madAfridiFan said:1) Australia (4 times world champs!!!)
2) West Indies (cause forst 2 world cups, Black Storm we call them - hope they come back in real form for consitence)
3) Pakistan (Patriotism asks this... but c'mon its not that wrong is it)
4) India (Gr8 talent despite rivals)
5) Sri Lanka
South Africa & New Zealand & England just don't come in top 5 i think despite having gr8 teams & gr8 individuals cause;
.) Never won World Cup
.) Should u put a side a world champ team & put in their a non world champ, is this real logical? AFTERAll World Cup winning is some win
I respect England team & i think along South Africa they have been one of the most unlucky teams to never claim world cup after being so strong in theor timesCricMaster said:I agree with you rankings here, apart from the fact that I believe England should be at number 5 instead of Sri Lanka.
Test cricket is far more important than ODIs. In that case, England should be before SL.
In that sense during the early 90s, England dominated more than what SL had done during mid 90s. I respect your thoughts bro, but really England should be ahead of SL even in ODIs since early 90s they were the more dominating force. Pakistan were underdogs during the 92' WC and the favourites were clearly England.madAfridiFan said:I respect England team & i think along South Africa they have been one of the most unlucky teams to never claim world cup after being so strong in theor times
I think the english give more priority to the Ashe & so were succesfull their 2 years ago, i just putted Sri Lanka cause they were world champs in 96 & dominated cricket then for some time
if u see test wise, then it will be
Australia [surely no1 in all all departments]
India[not sure ???]
England
West indies?[not sure ???]
??? Pakistan [really not sure]
the 5 teams above [except Australia] are not ranked as they seem
actually i realy don't know the Test History????
any way TKS FOR AGREEING WITH ME
hmn.. i searched tooCricMaster said:In that sense during the early 90s, England dominated more than what SL had done during mid 90s.

If you go by Tests... West Indies have dominated like no other, followed closely by Australia. Pakistan and England would come next, in my books, followed closely by India.
Of course it's not a fight matemadAfridiFan said:hmn.. i searched too
Paskitan comes in top 3 test teams as far as winning avg is concerned
about SRI or ENG i leave it on you, i have just one point & that is a team with world champion title on paper gets more cricket, i didn't rated the teams on test BTW cause that won't even count the WORLD CUP
This is not a fight b/w me & you,
Thank You
