Teams and world titles

[someone]

Calm down. There is a test Championship going on every year' date=' and India is currently the holder of the same.[/quote'] If I not wrong, there is a odi championship where Australia are number 1. So by just providing limited information, it is easy to say you are the best

[Zap_Brannigan]

I even rate the pakistani side of the late 90s as being better (there's no point talking about the pak side of the early 90s- they would have blown this indian side away).

Without Bottle caps, I doubt it.. Even when pak was at its peak there was always some other team better than it. India, on the other hand, is the best test team for the past few months. However short it may be, it is quiet an achievement considering that only 4 other teams could claim that in the 100+ years of cricket.

this is just trolling. pakistan of the 1990's couldn't even beat the worst indian test side of all time when they toured in 1999. they narrowly fluked a win at chennai and then got brutally f888ked at delhi. the current indian test side would pile up mountains of runs against your beloved ball tamperers.

no pakistan beat countries away from home back then. when was the last time india beat or drew against australia or south africa? oh wait a minute, they havent- in 70 years of cricket. i will never consider india a top side with the number of chump bowlers that play for that team.

lol that's half the cricket world mate. anybody can fluke it to the no1 position. didn't sri lanka get to no 2 this year as well? what's india's record like since they got to no1? did they win against SA?

Did Ind lose against SA ? :haha::hysterical: Australia lost 3 out of their 4 series against major teams last year.

India drew series in OZ in 2004, 1981, 1986. :haha::hysterical: India is no.1 and Pakistan is no.8 :hysterical::haha: Pakistan has won only 1 series against IND,OZ, SA in last 20 years :hysterical::haha:

It seems OriginalPandu is drunk. So india have never beaten or drew series against Australia and South Africa? Abey kaunse tabele se uth ke aaya hai. :hehe:

:cantstop: on a serious note that table is a bit lame and i am not sure what is the point implied here. So we have a WC in the 2 shorter formats of the game and we are currently number 1 so we are the best side to have played cricket since its inception?!

:WTF: The table just shows which team has held what major titles (official) in different formats. In tests it is #1 ranking, in ODIs and T20s, it is the WC, duh .... in doesn't make any other claims but states a simple fact! Only claim for Ind would be that it's the only team in the world to have held major titles. And it has also won the CT in 2002, along world series in Aus in 1985 (which was a one off event and many consider it as a major win). How an individual intreprets that simple fact wrt where the teams stand depends up on what factors are imp for him/her to sort the teams.

^^^ Great work with the stats, rett. Btw, One troll goes, another replaces him. I would like to see Satyam pwn the hell out of him :two_thumbs_up:

[Serani]

indias domination of cricket has been really awesome, 4 solid months of playing against Sri Lanka.

indias domination of cricket has been really awesome' date=' 4 solid months of playing against Sri Lanka.[/quote'] I don't mind if you keep writing against Ind (your opinion is none of my concern) .... But sooner or later, many will start seeing you as a troll :winky:

[Serani]

I dont always post negative things about India, just most of the time. Besides you need conflicting views on a forum or it would be boring, everyone saying "yeh India rule we are no 1" would be dull.

Only thing is I like to hear views of ppl from different countries and it would be bad if you get branded as a troll and then everytime you post, you have 4-5 ppl attacking you because of that perception

[achilles]

Sarcasm can't be a bait at all times. Sometimes it can have a detrimental effect, like rett pointed out.

Yes, well done. India has drawn three series against australia in the last 70 years. Super stuff. FTR Pakistan is just as bad as india and the other sub continental teams. Great at home but pathetic away. The only reason I respect pakistan cricket is that they seem to have had some great fast bowlers.
