Which team has won the most ICC trophies? image

Although cricket might not have as much reach or global mania as football, it still remains one of the most popular sports on the globe.

Over the decades, many different teams have dominated the sport. Some with sheer ruthlessness. Remember the West Indies side that consisted of Sir Vivian Richards, Michael Holding, Joel Garner, Clive Lloyd, Gordon Greenidge etc in the 70s, when they won two consecutive World Cups?

Then, Australia won three consecutive World Cup (1999, 2003, 2007), the only team to achieve the feat.

TSN takes a look at which team has won the most ICC trophies.
