LONGEST DUCK IN TEST CRICKET HISTORY - PETER SUCH 1999 vs NEW ZEALAND

[Cricketfan1997]

geoff allott's was longer

[BombayTheme]

What a gentleman too! walked off himself despite of umpire not giving him out

[FredDawg551]

Dean brownlie is a great batsman

[pritammstr]

jeez ramprakash 37 of 160...how many people fell of trees while watching him bat

[desi518001]

One of the best examples of how a batsman can contribute with the bat without actually scoring.

[Stephen1965]

@lookwhoshere1000 Geoff Allott batted for 101 minutes (faced 77 balls) in the first innings v South Africa at Auckland, March 1999, Peter Such lasted 72 minutes (faced 51 balls) in this innings which is the same as Manjural Islam who did the same feat for Bangladesh v Sri Lanka in Colombo, March 2002 but only faced 41 balls.

@Stephen1965 lookup Richard Ellison i think he once scored a duck of 52 balls ..India vs England

[Stephen1965]

@lookwhoshere1000 That's correct as it was v India in the 1984/85 tour, he faced 52 balls and batted for 50 minutes so is definately worth a mention.

Such a changed England side. Imagine Graeme Swann doing this for half an hour? He'd have had a double hundred by now. More than Ramprakash anyway...

[99TJS1]

he got 4/114 bowling next innings

[StFidjnr]

bonus feature a 50 runs reached

[cricmahanty]

For all his crazy tactics for the initial bit(that of taking a single on the third ball),Mark Ramprakash very well made up for that.An important p'ship in the end.

Peter Such's patience and grit deserves much applause.

What's funny is seeing how NZ didn't attack on Such much,and offered him easy singles.Holding sounded so annoyed as if he was ready to kick Fleming's butt :)

[cricmahanty]

Such a pleasantly charming piece of cricket this is!

Some people would classify this as boring,and this is exactly what's so difficult to explain to such people.Cricket's not just about runs,boundaries and wickets.Much of it is played in the mind and it's things like this which makes cricket so funnily interesting!

[MrCains820]

Pah. Such's efforts were impressive. But I want to see a man who could go days without scoring a run. Chris Tavare.

[abraxee]

[Adeeis]

[pritammstr]

[sirrossco]

@pritammstr to late bro :P

[celt999]

Rob, if you ever need proof as to how much people love you, consider that most of your fans would quite happily watch this video, which is 12 minutes of a bloke scoring 0 runs.

[sleepyoufool1]

[shutuprafa]

51 balls?!...now that's how you get a duck. Agarkar and Martin, I hope you're both taking notes

[shutuprafa]

[Cameroonwhite]
