I don't think even India is actually as good as Australia in the test format to be honest.  Because Australia is the best team when it comes to test cricket in my opinion. Of course India wins matches when they play home matches against almost any team. However Australia is probably the only team that has the most consistent performance in the test format against any team and in both home and away matches. And in recent times australia is also playing really well. I personally don't think Australia is actually the most powerful team in the world right now. I think that might be India. But Australia is better when it comes to team performance. And in test format team performance is the thing that counts the most.
