The All Blacks are the 17th most dominant team in the past 20 years according to a list compiled by ESPN The Magazine.
The sports publication compiled the list as part of their 20th anniversary issue, where it looked at the best teams across all sports to decide which teams
were the most dominant over the past 20 years.
Topping the list were the 2016-17 Golden State Warriors who last year went 16-1 in the NBA postseason, the best ever showing in a single NBA postseason.
Surprisingly for the American-centric publication, second place went to the Australian men's national cricket team of 2002-03, during which they extended their win streak to 16 Test victories and won all matches at the Cricket World Cup.
The 2015 All Blacks, who became the first team to win back-to-back Rugby World Cups, only managed 17th on the list.
