Team India dominates Test scene in last decade; South Africa comes in second

Significant changes in team supremacy have occurred in Test cricket during the past ten years, with India solidifying their position as the format's dominant force. India stands at the top of the lists with ease, setting the standard for quality and consistency based on series outcomes over the last ten years.

During this time, India has participated in 35 Test series, winning an incredible 24 of them, drawing four, and dropping only seven. This translates to an incredible 68.57%-win rate and the highest win/loss ratio (W/L) of any club, 3.42.  

This supremacy has occurred both domestically and internationally, with India's golden age in the longest format being marked by historic victories in Australia and competitive showings in England and South Africa.

India is followed on the list by South Africa and Australia. Australia has won 19 series in 33 attempts, with a win percentage of 57.57 and a W/L ratio of 2.11, while South Africa has won 20 of 34 series (58.82% win rate) and a W/L ratio of 1.81.

These numbers demonstrate the resilience of both parties, even if neither has recently achieved the same degree of success as India.

Despite winning the 2021 World Test Championship, New Zealand has a 50% series victory percentage (18 victories in 36 series). Ever competitive, England has won as many series as South Africa (20), but from 42 series, giving them a more modest win rate of 47.61%.

Bangladesh, West Indies worst; Pakistan in mid-tier

Sri Lanka and Pakistan are in the middle tier. Sri Lanka's 17 victories in 43 series (W/L 0.85) and Pakistan's 14 victories in 33 series (W/L 1.07) show sporadic highs but no sustained dominance.

New to Test cricket, Ireland has only participated in nine series, winning three and losing six, for a 33.33% win rate and a 0.50 W/L ratio.

Bangladesh and the West Indies are at the lower end. Bangladesh is still at the bottom with only six series wins (16.21%) and the lowest W/L ratio of 0.28, while the West Indies has only won eight of 37 series (21.62%).

All things considered, the statistics highlight India's dominance in Test cricket for the past ten years. India has stood out due to their exceptional consistency, even though traditional heavyweights like Australia, South Africa, and England have managed to stay competitive.
