| Australia | 8 | 128 | 16.00 | 51.26 |
| South Africa | 10 | 107 | 10.70 | 47.64 |
| England | 9 | 139 | 15.44 | 44.66 |

| India | 10 | 44 | 4.40 | 31.25 |
| New Zealand | 21 | 85 | 4.05 | 29.62 |
| Pakistan | 12 | 36 | 3.00 | 29.08 |
| Bangladesh | 6 | 20 | 3.33 | 28.65 |
| Sri Lanka | 10 | 39 | 3.90 | 20.94 |
| Zimbabwe | 6 | 18 | 3.00 | 13.16 |
apparently our openers are better than sri lanka's by a wide margin in test match batting in countries were seam bowling is most conducive. we have less than 1 run average than pakistan, not even 3 runs behind india, and rate fairly competiviely against new zealand as well.
