Question for English and Australian fans

'Recent decades'
Since 1990s, rugby World cups
South africa - 3
New Zealand - 2

By that logic you must think that NZ is the greatest cricket team in history (as well as in recent decades) as we've won the most World Test Championships.

I greatly respect the Boks as our greatest rugby rival, but we've dominated them in the professal era. To give an example, Richie the GOAT McCaw played 26 tests against SA and won 20 of them (6 losses, 0 draws) for a 77% win rate.

I don't. We've been terrible in the last 12 months.
