Australia
Pakistan
For every country, what felt important in 2020 wasn't how the cricket panned out, but that it happened at all. That cannot be true of any other side more than Pakistan, who have marked a few milestones that might allow them to look back at they year with something other than profound distaste.
South Africa
Sri Lanka
Zimbabwe
A team that usually gets the scraps of the international schedule had to make do with even less in 2020, despite relatively fewer coronavirus cases in the country. Zimbabwe played little more than a handful of fixtures in each format in series against Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Pakistan, and had scheduled visits from Ireland, India and the Netherlands and a tour to Australia postponed.
Afghanistan
