  1. wat i hate is teams being defensive in test matches...ie the game can swing either way but neither team wants to lose....there r some games...dont recall

    the indo-pak whole test and odi series was boring...so predictable as far as scoring patterns wid the batting 'paradise' pitches...india makes 500 wid ease...pak makes 500 wid ease...so where's the competition?u cant even blame them cuz the bowlers r trying...


  2. There are lotz but I will just mention a recent one

    India vs Sri Lanka-Idea cup-1st ODI

  5. India vs Sri Lanka-Idea cup(both matches)

    India vs Pakistan 2005(same as above)

    India vs Bangladesh(anytime)

    India vs New Zealnd 2002(Low scoring series)

    there r plentty of them.

  6. Well, that's an almost impossible question to answer - not least because we haven't got reliable balls-faced statistics for many of the early Test matches (it didn't become the norm to record that information until the last 30-40 years). In the early days there were legendary stonewallers like England's William Scotton, a left-hander who once carried his bat through a first-class innings and scored 9 not out. During the 1950s Trevor Bailey was a famous stumbling-block for England in Tests, once scoring 68 in 458 minutes against Australia at Brisbane in 1958-59. Later in that same match, which must have been an excruciating one for the spectators, Australia's Jim Burke went even slower, managing 28 in 250 minutes. But, using the information we do have, the batsman who scored at the slowest rate (among those who scored more than 1000 runs in Tests) was ... Bob Taylor, the England wicketkeeper of the 1970s and '80s. He faced 4260 balls for his 1156 runs - a rate of 27.14 runs per 100 balls. Englishmen lie second and third as well - Mike Brearley managed a strike rate of 29.80 runs per 100 balls, and Chris Tavare 30.60. Bill Woodfull, the former Australian captain, comes next with 31.12, and the New Zealander Bruce Edgar managed 32.07. Brearley also leads the way in ODIs, although he only scored 510 runs in them off 1120 balls, a strike rate of 45.54 runs per 100 balls. Top among those who scored more than 1000 runs in ODIs is Edgar (49.23).

  7. 2-6 Aug 1997

    1st TEST: Sri Lanka v India at Colombo

    India scored 537 with sachin ,Azharuddin and sidhu making hundreds

    which was replied by whoooping 952 by srilanka which included 550 plus patnership by mahanama and jayasuriya  

  8. All the rain affected test matches which eventually turn out Draw .lol

  9. Well to me there is no boring cricket match unless it is completely rained out.

  10. Adeliade test match in 2007 against India, when Australia played extremely negative cricket and consumed 2 days in batting to ensure that it goes a draw !

    god bless!

    star!

  11. LOL! A lot of test matches are boring! When South Africa toured India last year, the series was quite boring! The pitch where Sehwag made the quick fire 300 was such a one sided pitch! I got bored with all the strokeplay by both teams! This was such a boring game!

  12. what a retarded question...

  13. every pakistan vs india match
