4) PAKISTAN ( Green Shirks) :
Pakistan was
champion of the ICC Cricket World Cup in 1992, held in New Zealand, as well as
runner-up of the ICC World Cup of 1999, which was held in England. Likewise,
Pakistan won the ICC World Twenty20 of 2009, and was runner-up in the inaugural
tournament of this competition in 2007 (2007 ICC World Twenty20). It is
important to note that the Pakistani team is the current Asian Cricket champion
and they are ranked 4th in the ICC Test Rankings.
Pakistan has
played 370 Test matches, with 115 wins, 101 losses and 154 tied. This combined
is the third in the historical percentage of wins and losses with 1.13%, as
well as the 5th in the history of total percentages with an average of 31.33%.
In the same way they have played 774 ODIs, of which they have won 416, they
have lost 335, tied 6, with 17 finals without definitive results. The strength
of the Muslim group, as well as the ascendancy of this sport, not only in their
country but throughout the Indian subcontinent, has allowed Pakistan, in
combination with India and Sri Lanka, to have organized the World Cups of 1987,
1996 and 2011, becoming the countries that have most organized the ICC Cricket
World Cup, after England, a country that has celebrated them in 4
opportunities.
It must be
remembered that this Muslim selection was part of the Indian Nation until the
middle of the last century, and it was not until 1952 that it participated as
an independent nation in the ICC Cricket Board. Notwithstanding that
proviso,
Pakistan has also played 55 international Twenty20 matches, more than any other
selection: winning 33, losing 21 and drawing 1.
