Firstly, your statements were a bit ambiguous and I merely stated my thoughts.

Secondly, Itachi is a master of his genjutsu and yes, he probably knows that genjutsu can be cast through the five senses, but that is not enough to say he has the best chance of countering any genjutsu. Certainly sage genjutsu must be something that he is unfamiliar with and operates completely different to his genjutsu. Thus we can only say for sure that Itachi has the best chance of countering visual and mainstream(A rank and below) genjutsu.

Thirdly, to a shinobi knowing is half the battle and if you know most of your opponent's abilities the odds are definitely more in your favor. Though, this battle has a lot of what ifs, the truth of the matter is that Jiraiya knows much more of Itachi than Itachi knows of him, with that in mind I give fights 6/10 to Jiraiya and 4/10 to Itachi.
