Taking the last 4 years and giving 1 pt for a draw 3 points for a win and dividing by number of games I get
NZ home: 2.76
India home: 2.47
Australia home: 2.42
SA home: 2
Pakistan home: 1.92
Sri Lanka home 1.82
England home: 1.75


SA away: 1.9
Oz away: 1.4
Sri away: 1.1
india away: 1.05
NZ away: 1.04
Pakistan away: 1
England away: 0.714

Adding it together my rankings would be
SA 3.9
Oz 3.82
NZ 3.8
India: 3.52
Paki: 2.92
Sri: 2.9
England 2.4

welcome to the forum

yes south africa are the best team because of their away form (they are number one on away as well as home and away)

Their home form is pretty weak. Perhaps they are more likely to make their pitches competitive for tourists which helps them overseas?

Thanks.

Wonder if anyone is starting a 4th Test thread?
