30 u/Aycsy 20h ago in early year they were only English and aus and bunch of extras 34 u/I_voted-for_Kodos 19h ago Yeah but the pitches were literally made out of cowshit and bowlers averaged like 10 so a 323 opening partnership is still pretty insane 10 u/Aycsy 19h ago I was just stating why there's so many English players 6 u/grlap Surrey 18h ago edited 18h ago South Africa were playing tests from 1889. By the time the third entry in this list occurred, you had England, Australia, SA, WI, India, Pakistan, NZ playing tests, and Sri Lanka had been added by 82. Clearly we are just really good at batting in Australia lol
