Re: 20 Wickets to win a Test?

edit

Australia have now 'bettered' if you could call it that, the West Indies efforts. Today, the final Australia-South Africa Test was completed, Australia defeating South Africa, and taking just 15 wickets (SA:9 dec in 1st and 6 dec in 2nd). Jazzycab 11:03, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

15 is pretty impressive, but I wonder what the lowest ever is? I found a nine here, and an eight in Cronje's forfeit (although that shouldn't really count). Stephen Turner (Talk) 11:09, 6 January 2006 (UTC)Reply
I was thinking the same sort of thing, but thought it might be good for the quiz, but now it's out in the open... Jazzycab 11:15, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
Oops, sorry if you wanted to keep it secret! Stephen Turner (Talk) 11:17, 6 January 2006 (UTC)Reply
That doesn't really matter, but if you find any Tests where less wickets have been taken to win the match than found so far, please notify me. Jazzycab 11:22, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
