As good as it looks for Pak, we still only have 1 world cup win.

India, Sri Lanka and Pakistan have played an inordinate number of games against Bangladesh and Zimbabwe with tremendous win percentages which have boosted their W/L ratio significantly.

India have played 23 matches against Bangladesh, England have played 15. Hardly an "inordinate" number of matches compared to England. Nice try though, 7/10 for effort.

I think India's win % is higher by playing England to be honest..my memory is a little hazy but the last 3 times England came for an ODI series to India, the results were 6-1, 5-0 and 5-0.

India won 22 of those games, Sl won 28 from 29 and Pakistan a similar number to sl. Zimbabwe has been also been very productive for those 3 teams. Another sensitive Indian fan hates true stats. No one denies England are poor in this format.

Surprise to see SouthAfrica at no 6,.In my opinion,they have been the second best , next to Australia, in Odi format and under Cronje they were best in the shorter format.Perhaps their record under Smith in odi's declined a bit .Agree with hope for, above stats will provide better picture if it excludes win or loss against Bangladesh and Zimbabwe.

Yawn

I am not dreadful in mathematics but did not looked at that.Perhaps the rating by OP should be as per W/L ratio.

However, you all must remember England won the toughest ODI tournament of all time (the Perth Challenge in 1986/7) and also won the Akai-Singer Champions Trophy in1997/98 under the inspired leadership of Adam Hollioake.

We remember very well because thats all England have won in odi's.

We are winning this current series in ODI's?

It's about the overall odi record and though all credit to England for thrashing Pakistan 3-0 but it constitutes very little part of Odi record.

Yes but we are heading in the right direction? One has to begin somewhere

Ok dokie

PR, do you remember the Perth Challenge?

England comfortably beat a very special Pakistan side in the final.
