Tag Cricket Records

1854 test matches in all (as I write this) have produced 1197 results, including 2 ties. Hence - 655 were drawn. in other words, every third test match played around the world yields a draw..

But sometimes, some cricket teams attain invincibility as they don't lose or draw any test match they play anywhere in the world BUT and win them all! in a row or in succession (however you like to understand it).

Test cricket record for winning most test matches without losing or drawing but winning, anywhere in the world goes to Australia with 16 games. That winning streak was achieved by Aussies between late 1999 to early 2001 (see list below) under the captainship of Steve Waugh before Indians beat them at Kolkata (after following on, Laxman 281)!

Now from December 2005 to till now, Australian cricket team have won every test match they've played.. 14 so far. Will the champion team break-n-better their own record, or will Indians would again stop this Aussie bull?? I'll leave that on time to decide and hope following 3 lists provide more details on how ONLY THREE cricket teams have achieved 'invincibility' aka 'most test match wins by a team without losing or drawing any test match'.
