Stats : All Test teams ranked by decade from 1950s

[jeetu]

This table is minor variation on rating best team of the decade by discarding performance against lower performing team. The table is based on overall record.

All teams with below 0.75 Win/Loss record are discarded from being top team of the decade.
For example - India gets pushed to third spot in 2010 decade despite leading in W/L record.

Some teams who have played very few matches in the decade are discarded. South Africa played on 4 tests in 70's so their 70's record is discarded in this table.


Note - Perhaps in future integrating away record with more weightage as compared to home record will give different result.

Great work.

Looks like Aussies have been the best team statistically.

Pakistan did remarkably well in their debut decade even outperforming West Indies who had the 3 W's in their rank. Fazal Mahmood and Hanif Mohammad were probably the biggest reson behind their success.

This table affected the records of teams which penalized Australia and West Indies because of Packer series as they were forced to lay backup team. Also South Africa had some great players in their rank , but could only play 1 series because of ban.

Great List.

The idea behind it was to eliminate performances against teams who played like minnows for most part of the decades.

Yeah, I agree that its a better criteria than taking W/L ratio against all teams including minnows.

The problem with this data is UAE is taken as neutral venue for Pakistan against all opponents and also for NZ. It should precisely be away for NZ.

[MENTION=53377]jeetu[/MENTION], can you confirm this? Will you be able to elaborate the calculation done for NZ and Pak in 2010s?

Anyways, good work done !

No, New Zealand won 17 matches and lost 28 against (Aus, SA, Ind, Eng, Pak and SL) while Pak won 22 matches and lost 33 against (Aus, Eng, SA, NZ and SL). So Pakistan's W/L ratio of 0.67 is better than NZ's W/L ratio of 0.607

Its got nothing to do with home, away or neutral venues.

Okay. But by the same token, we have WI ahead of Pak in 90s and India and Australia ahead of England in 80s, also India ahead of Sri Lanka in 90s. Every factor considered for rankings will have their own shuffles in team positions.

India has a better W/L ratio than England and Sri Lanka in the 80's and 90's respectively, so that doesn't surprise me. Same for Australia in the 80's, they have a better W/L ratio than England. WI ahead of Pak in the 90's is because WI won 7 tests and lost 8 against Australia, while Pak won only 2 tests and lost 7 against Oz in that decade.

Thanks , My calculations on this thread is based on overall data not not home/away. When i usually do home /away calculation i eliminate neutral venues and merge them as you have stated in this post.

Test teams ranking since 01 Jan, 2015

Let's have a look at the W/L ratio of all the test teams to analyse the rankings of top 8 test teams in the world since 2015.

Minimum sample - 20 tests

1. India - 3.1
2. New Zealand - 1.8
3. Australia - 1.5
4. England - 1.11
5. South Africa - 1.08
6. Pakistan - 0.9
7. Sri Lanka - 0.7
8. West Indies - 0.45
9. Bangladesh - 0.34

https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/e...2015;spanval1=span;template=results;type=team

To conclude, India are undisputed no.1 test team since 2015 with a W/L of 3.1. New Zealand and Australia are placed 2nd and 3rd.

South Africa and England are close but England slightly ahead. Then we have Pakistan at no.6 with a W/L of 0.9. Sri Lanka and West Indies are next to follow with BD at bottom.

Discuss!

 

[deep82]

India has been No.1 for 5 straight years ( apart from the initial covid months ).

But no shame giving the crown to the brillant NZ for the time being. They does deserve it.

 

[Markhor]

What is the W/L ratio since Kane Williamson was appointed Test captain ?

 

[Last Monetarist]

What is the W/L ratio since Kane Williamson was appointed Test captain ?

2.62 in the matches Williamson has led. Although most of those wins are at home, mind.

 

[Markhor]

So the gap between 1 and 2 isn't as wide as the OP is suggesting then.

 

[IMMY69]

What a pity that Pakistan played all their games away from 2009 to 2020...

11 years in international wilderness.
I think just for that they should be hands down the best in the world during this period
