Ball 65 overs old, now should be the time for our GOAT Off spinner. Instead we have a bald straight breaker.

IIRC, Hansie Cronje did that in a test match against England...all for a leather jacket from bookmaker Marlon Aronstam.

Interestingly, it occurred 3 months before he got publicly exposed for match fixing.

My memory of that was that both teams declared at 0/0 to try and force a result because it has rained for 3 days?

I vaguely remember reading a articles that called it match fixing even though it was before Hansie got pinged for it.

Obviously developments down the track after the match with Hansie would probably paint a different picture of that result.
