Most bizarre game of cricket I've probably ever seen taking place at the moment.

Where do you start??....21 wickets in 1 day (so far!!)....Last 18 of them for about 70 runs!!!.....Australia 21 for 9 in their second innings!!

Still favourites mind you, leading by 209!!... :lol:






And so you aim towards the sky,
And you'll rise high today,
Fly away, Far away,
Far from pain....

Aussies 10th wicket partnership is more than the rest of the team combined.... embarassing.

Maybe their batting line up is upside down. :lol:

At 21-9 they were 5 adrift of the lowest ever test score. Shame about the last wicket partnership.

I had wicket alerts activated on my phone while I was in a meeting at work this afternoon and I couldn't believe how often it was going off, I think I was causing concern with the grin that gradually appeared on my face.

I was actually a bit disappointed when I got out and found they'd managed to put on 26 for the last one!

Not sure if it was confirmed, but it was said it was the first time in test history that all 4 innings of a test have been played on a single day of a match??.... :shock:

Not seen it confirmed, but it would be the first time I've ever heard of it.

Gutted they broke 26, but that's cricket all over. Who needs twenty20?!

....And after yesterday's wicket-fest, almost predictably, South African canter home by 8 wickets, with Amla and Smith knocking up centuries.... :lol:

I'll give the Aussies one thing, combining this with the way they lost to England last winter, they sure know how to receive a humiliating defeat.... :lol:

Has happened twice before

England v West Indies @ Lords in 2000

And

New Zealand v India @ Hamilton in 2002

Here's the link to confirm

Watched this live on Thurs. Aus were 18-6 when I started. Got to 22-9 when I was interrupted by the bl**dy Sainsbury's grocery delivery man. I'd have been truly gutted if I'd missed seeing them all out for twenty-odd.

Marvellous piece of commentary (replayed) from Robin Jackman when that Aussie batsman came down the pitch, took a wild swing and was caught behind the wicket off the top edge. What did Jackass say? :"He got nowhere near it." :shock:
