Apparently it's only the third longest gap between centuries too (the other two had world wars in between centuries).

I posted about a recent match in which 5 bowlers each took 2 wickets. The below is for Test cricket, but it seems to be even more rare than I had realized!

9 Instances in Test cricket where five bowlers took exactly two wickets each in a Test innings. The first such instance took place in 1883 while the second happened almost a hundred years later in 1981.

Just finished reading this on cricinfo regarding NZ win today from their 2nd innings - amazing

No replacement required

No replacement required

Good result for SC. Surely they have adequate cover within the squad, so that makes sense.

I'll add, nearly twice as many innings than Bradman.

It would've been amazing to watch that guy bat live
