Test Cricket Teams

Test Cricket is the highest-graded and longest form of cricket. It is played for five days and the match for a single day ends with the sunset. The first ever international Test match was played between England, cricket's Mother Nation and Australia, the now most successful cricket team, on march 15, 1877. From then onwards eight more teams have been given the status of test-playing teams.
