Late 80s would have been the best bet, but its hard to say they were better than WI.1988 when we almost beat the Windies in their backyard or 1996 when we beat England away and I think Atherton commented that we were the best team at that moment. Although obviously your point still stands that we didnt really dominate.
They did beat England in 96, but had just lost to Aus and Sri Lanka. Also around that time, South Africa beat them home and away. They were better than England but in the 90s that on its own doesnt count for much
