South Africa versus England in a cricket test match in Durban, 1939. England needed 696 to win in the last innings and were 654 for 5 when the match was stopped and a draw agreed.


What was the reason the the match wasn't played to a conclusion ?

Messiah is spot on . They were playing a timeless test ie play to a result. They were on the eleventh day when the match was almost finished and the boat was due to return to England, so an honarary draw was agreed.

1976 League Cup final

It was an overhead kick or some other fluke apparently.
