Most dominant team in cricket

[CricAddict]

With Mumbai again winning the Ranji title this year, which team do you think has dominated the most in the respective structure they have played? Below are my nominations.

Invincibles
Windies 70s/80s team
Aussie 90s/00s team
Women's Australia 00's team
Mumbai
New South Wales
Barbados

Any other? Once we have a list of teams, I can put up a poll.

 

[Ali TT]

1950s Surrey - won the county championship 7 years running and provided a big chunk of England's strong side that decade.

 

[subshakerz]

Dominant to me means harder to beat. 15 years undefeated home and away gives WI the title.

 

[Socerer 01]

Aus women team

 

[honestbharani]

Windies 80s
Aussies 00s

 

[Coronis]

NSW in the sheffield shield

9 consecutive titles 53/54-61/62
14/18 titles between 48/49-65/66, 2 2nd places, 2 3rd places

Since 1934, Mumbai has won the Ranji trophy 42 times out of 89. For close to a hundred years, now that's dominance. Then considering that Mumbai is around 5500 times smaller than India....

 

[Socerer 01]

if we’re going by domestic dominance then Bombay won every Ranji Trophy from 1959 till 1973

between 1956 and 1977 they failed to win only on 2 occasions as Karnataka won in 1974 and Baroda won in 1958

from 1949-1985:

they missed out on the title on only 11 occasions

Mumbai lobby exists for a reason

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Could be Warwickshire. We've won the County Championship 8 times in just the past 140 years alone.

Mumbai lobby exists for a reason

I mean, definitely. The problem happens when they try to make Indian team a Mumbai XI.

Probably this, except women's cricket isn't really cricket

Someone send this to Sanju Manju

If you went by just his first three years in Test cricket and the promise he obviously had, he'd be right in that mix. Still a mystery why he could never cut it but he's a prick so I don't feel bad about it.

Sorry, I meant Sanjay Manjrekar whose father is in that list of kar-surnamed India players.

Sanjay Manjrekar could had been the 12th man; but Eknath Solkar is highly regarded as India's best short range fielder......

I remember late 90s Surrey basically being all internationals
