Eye catching is those 16 tests twice by the same team.

Total domination.

Total domination.

Yaah, that side used to play every single test for win.

Even current Aus team is aggressive in nature but that team dominated cricket in all forms for such a long time. Used to get boring at times but it was great to see some players standing up against them.

^ totally agreed. but I think this current Aussie side might also do some specials..

Aus don't have the players to do the same. At least not right now. Currently they are riding a wave due to Johnson and Harris is not getting young. Batting is still a suspect in my opinion. Aus will do fine but I doubt we will see that kind of domination from any team soon.

I had high hopes from SA but Smith made it clear that he simply wants to avoid losing before trying for a win. You can't dominate cricket with that attitude. SA did have a great building blocks to dominate. Great bowlers, batters and fielders when all other teams are struggling with one weakness or another.

21 ODI and 16 Tests wins will not be broken easily !!!

Growing up. Even as an Australian fan I used to want certain batsmen like Lara to play well against us- because I knew the match would last 4 or maybe 5 days but we'd still win so I had no problems watching someone like Lara score 200.

 

[Haripotter]

The 3rd best streak was broken by India in that epic Test match i think #Dravid #Laxman

 

[Convict]

Two of Australias ODI streaks there include the world cup wins in 2003 and 2007 where Ricky Ponting led the side to win every game we played.

 

[battler]

Eye catching is those 16 tests twice by the same team.

And both times the streak was broken by India

Eye catching is those 16 tests twice by the same team.

Ironically both strek end by same team

 

[Buffet]

It was a coincidence but Indians were the only team who stood up against the great Aus team with any consistency.

edit..

In that same era as those two 16 game streaks the aussies also had two 7 game streaks.

One started not long after the 1st streak ended and the other started not long after the 2nd 16 game streak.

So 4 of the aussies best 5 winning runs happened in that 11 year period.

I think India hold the longest streak of winning while chasing
Correct me if i am wrong

And what about longest streak of not winning a single overseas test by this same great Team India, 26 matches without a win, it will take some beating by any Test team except BD & ZIM. Indians should be proud of this record

 

[London_Lahori]

16 straight test wins. Wow and they've done it twice. That's quite an achievement, unbelievable team. I mean 16 straight wins!! No draws no losses just wins.

If a team goes 16 tests without a defeat they're very very good. To go 16 straight wins is incredible and I'll go so far as to say it won't be repeated.

India holds the WORLD RECORD for 17 overseas losses in a ROW.

 

[Zeshan547]

17 straight losses and 26 without a win, what a great and unbelievable record by team india

 

[Eminence]

Australia rule in Tests.

 

[BudMarsh]
