India set to achieve a rare distinction
India has won 178 tests and lost 178 tests prior to the start of the first test against Bangladesh slated to start on 19 Sep 2024 at Chennai. If India wins this test, it would become the fourth team in the annals of test cricket to win more tests than the tests it has lost. Australia, England and Pakistan are the other three teams to win more tests than the tests it has lost
