Explanation
Australia is the correct answer because they have been involved in both of the only two tied Test matches in cricket history. A tie in Test cricket occurs when the side batting last is all out with the scores exactly level.
The first tied Test took place in 1960 between Australia and the West Indies in Brisbane. The second tied Test occurred in 1986 between Australia and India in Madras. Since Australia was a participant in both instances, they are the only country to have been involved in two tied Tests.
