Australia

The Australian cricket team is today regarded as the dominant team in world cricket. It is one of the first two Test nations (with England). They have an outstanding recent Test record and in the one day form of the game were World Champions in 1987, 1999 and 2003. They are also the current ICC Test Champions and are regarded by players, coaches and commentators as being almost unbeatable.
