What are the odds?

Post by Zat on Tue 15 Jul 2008, 18:55

From this week's cricinfo Ask Steven column.
When England made 593 in the first innings at Lord's, did they set a record for a team put in by South Africa? asked Max Johns from New Zealand
Remarkably, England's total of 593 for 8 declared at Lord's exactly equalled the highest score by any side put in by South Africa in a Test. In Cape Town in April 2006, New Zealand also made 593 for 8 declared after Graeme Smith won the toss and decided to bowl first. His opposite number as captain, Stephen Fleming, made 262.

So if Sooky wins the toss and you get to bat, get ready to enjoy it...
