Windies shock win by 8 runs, their first in oz since 97, yes they did
something england havnt achieved there for 13 years and prob just as
many tests, thanks to Joe the Toe taking 7. I do wish that whatever
wizardry these sporties get in medical attention was made available
to ordinary people cos it took me 4 weeks to recover from a
bruised toe, i couldnt even wear a shoe for nearly 3 weeks.

Thanks. A fantastic effort, especially considering his damaged toe.

2pm start, and the session was extended as Aus were 8 down.
Just checked, breaks are called Dinner and Tea in a day/night Test match.

RSA have a very good record in oz i think recently, but what about SL, NZ and Pakistan?
Pretty sure none of the others have won in oz in tests.

Congrats to WI and to S. Joseph in particular. Their unexpected win must
be good for the game.

With the absolutely ridiculous England result and this, one of the great cricketing days. Best format of the game.

Seeing as no one else is brave enough to answer this question, I'll try my luck here...

Would it be "one of the great cricketing days" if the final wicket was a mankad?
