Australia and England are bitter rivals and the former can hold the fact that they have registered 26 more wins despite playing almost 200 Tests less against the latter. The Windies have enjoyed both incredible highs and bitter lows and even though their total of 165 wins is the third highest in history, they would feel that they should have had more.

There is great news for Indian fans as they hold the edge over Pakistan 138 – 130 but Pakistani fans can take heart from the fact that they have played 100 Tests less than India but have nearly registered the same number of wins.
