This brings together the averages of the team's matches together as opposed to individual matches. Netherlands pairing of Michael van Gerwen and Raymond van Barneveld who claimed the title three times together dominate the standings.

Their highest mark is 117.88 from 2014 Semi-Finals against Brendan Dolan and Mickey Mansell which unsurprisingly saw them roll out 4-0 winners.

There is a big gap from there but they also take second and third with 111.33 against USA in 2017 and 109.33 against Czech Republic from the same year.
